Firefighters arrived at the house shortly after 4 a.m. and found fire coming from the living room area of the house, Fire Marshal Johnny Zackary said. \u201cThe resident had already exited the house and was not harmed by the fire,\u201d he said. \u201cJust before the fire, the resident had entered the living room turning on a lamp, which resulted in the bulb popping. After replacing the bulb and when it still did not work, she checked the breaker.\u201d After two attempts, the breaker held. When the resident went back to the living room, the drapes and an area near the wall plug were on fire. \u201cThe smoke alarm did sound, according to the resident,\u201d Zackary said. <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Fire crews determined the cause of the fire was related to the electrical components of the house. \u201cAs a measure of safety, anytime a breaker will not reset with one attempt, it is advisable to unplug any appliances and devices, leave the breaker off, then have a certified electrician provide a service inspection of the electrical wiring and related components,\u201d said Zackary.
