Firefighters responded for the second time in six months to an Ogletown home to find a fire blazing throughout and smoke pouring out. The crews cut holes in the roof and broke windows to quickly extinguish the flames inside the house off of Del. 273 on Monday. This is the second time firefighters have put out a fire in the house on Powderhorn Drive. In September 2018, the same fire companies responded to a basement fire that displaced at least seven people. A teen said his sister and mom screamed there was a fire and he called 9-1-1, he told The News Journal. Fire marshals are investigating the cause of the fire, said Christiana Fire Company's assistant chief Matt Netsch.
