VIDEO: A home being renovated in New Castle, Lawrence County caught fire Sunday morning. The fire broke out at the N. Mercer Street home around 5:30 a.m. Pittsburgh's Action News 4 was told a family living a few blocks away saw the glow in the sky. They woke up the next-door neighbors of the home that caught fire and got them out of their house. Fire departments sprayed water on the neighbor's home as well to keep it from catching fire. No one was hurt but firefighters say the house is a total loss. City of New Castle Fire Chief Mike Kobbe says the home being renovated did not have its utilities turned on. The cause is now being investigated.
