Salem Fire Deputy Fire Chief Joe Parrott, says the response was upgraded to a second alarm based on witness reports shortly after fire crews were dispatched.

"Firefighters on six fire engines and one ladder truck quickly brought the fire under control, but not before the home was seriously damaged by the fire," Parrott said.
