The Wheeling Fire Department is investigating an overnight fire that occurred in the Woodsdale area of the city. Around 2:15 a.m., firefighters responded to a house on fire on Ivy Avenue.

When firefighters arrived, the house was fully involved. Firefighters spent several hours suppressing the fire before it was under control. The house is a total loss and a neighboring home also sustained exterior heat damage.

One person was taken to Wheeling Hospital by fire department personnel to be evaluated as a precautionary measure. No firefighters or other occupants were injured.

A cause is currently unknown as the incident remains under investigation by the department’s Bureau of Fire Investigations.
