"Our guys did a great job of getting in there quickly and getting the fire knocked down," Johnson said. "They definitely saved the house."
The fire contained to the bedroom. There is some water damage and smoke damage on the second floor.
The four adults were able to relocate with family members and Johnson said because power was cut to the house because of the fire, it will be some time before the house can be occupied again.
No injuries were reported.
The residents did not have any pets, Johnson said.
Along with Le Roy, responding agencies included Bergen, Stafford, City of Batavia, Pavilion, and Town of Batavia was a fill-in at Le Roy's hall.
