A Milton resident is recovering after a house caught on fire.
On Tuesday, December 6th, at roughly 7:50 p.m., Halton Regional Police Service (HRPS) and Milton Fire Department (MFD) were called to a residential fire on Sherwood Road in Milton.
When police arrived, they were told by neighbours that there was still someone inside the home. Officers entered the building and located a male on the second floor. He was safely evacuated out of the home. The male was conscious and was transported to a local hospital for treatment.
MFD quickly extinguished the flames.
The cause of the fire has not been determined just yet. Officials are still working on confirming the amount of damage sustained.
