Fire apparently started by an electrical blanket. Fire spread from the bedroom of origin up into the attic.

This house is in a remote area with no hydrants. Crews had to rely on tanker shuttles to bring water into the scene.

Two occupants were transported to Rutland Regional Hospital with unspecified injuries, but were released shortly.
