Officials: Pile of clothes catches fire, sparks blaze at home in Bristol Township

Officials are investigating what caused a pile of clothes to catch fire and spread to a first floor hallway inside a home in Bristol Township Saturday morning. 

Firefighters were dispatched to a home on the 100 block of Dogwood Drive just before 9 a.m., according to Bristol Township Fire Marshal Kevin Dippolito. 

No one was injured in the fire, but damages rendered the home inhabitable until repairs can be made. The Red Cross is helping the displaced residents find shelter.

Dippolito determined the fire began at a pile of clothing and spread to a first floor hallway. Investigators are unsure what sparked the blaze.
