Two people were forced to flee into sub-zero temperatures Friday morning after their Masury home caught fire.

The thermometer read ten below zero before 6 a.m. when flames spread from the chimney on a house along A Street, just a few feet from the Ohio-Pennsylvania line.

Dispatchers told the two adult residents to evacuate as several fire departments were called to the scene.

The first firefighter to arrive reported smoke coming from the home.
