A house fire in Durham early Sunday morning displaced three adults, WRAL reported. The fire started in a bedroom of a home on Allgood Street near Craven Street around midnight, according to Durham Fire Chief Bryan Baker.

Fire investigators are currently working to determine the cause of the fire, WRAL added. The occupants of the home are now displaced and receiving assistance.

In a separate incident on the same day, about 50 firefighters responded to another house fire on South Buchanan Boulevard in Durham, as reported by ABC11 WTVD. That fire caused one person to be displaced and resulted in minor injuries to a firefighter.

The Durham Fire Department brought that fire under control in less than 20 minutes with assistance from Enbridge, Duke Energy Progress, Durham Police, and Durham County EMS. The cause of that fire remains under investigation.
