No one was hurt after a fire broke out in a Chesapeake home on Monday, the Chesapeake Fire Department said. Firefighters were called to the 3300 block of Stilworken Drive just before 7 p.m., which is in the Western Branch section of the city, near Dunedin Park. Chesapeake Engine 12 arrived minutes later to find smoke and flames visible from the single-story home. Everyone inside the home had gotten out safely prior to the firefighters' arrival. Crews were able to get the fire under control and have it marked out by 7:30. Officials say the cause of the fire is accidental. The Red Cross is assisting the displaced residents.
