Six people ran to escape flames overnight after fire broke out at a home in Everett.
Crews responded to the scene, near Maple Street and Everett Avenue, shortly after midnight Wednesday after receiving reports of smoke and flames billowing from the home.
The home was fully engulfed in flames when firefighters arrived. The blaze could also be seen from nearby Interstate 5, which caused a distraction for overnight drivers there as well.
Six occupants of the home were accounted for. One of them sustained a minor injury. Two pet ferrets and a cat also got out - although the cat has not been recovered.
The fire was eventually extinguished, but the home is believed to be a total loss.
