ISLE OF WIGHT COUNTY, Va. — Two children are among the four forced out of their home when a fire tore through part of a residence in the Rushmere area overnight, according to Isle of Wight Fire Rescue.
The house fire broke out just after 1 a.m.
By the time crews arrived, officials said "over half of the building engulfed in flames." This prompted a response from surrounding fire agencies, including Smithfield and Surry.
The fire was brought under control within an hour of it being reported.
Officials said no one was injured.
Investigators are working to determine what caused the fire.
