A Monday morning fire that damaged four row homes in Harrisburg and displaced a man and his son started on a mattress on the second floor of one of the homes, Harrisburg Fire Chief Don Konkle said today.
'We don't know if it was careless use of smoking materials or an electrical shortage,' he added.
The home, on the 1500 block of Berryhill Street, was vacant but fire officials and neighbors believe homeless people were staying there. The home did have electricity and a space heater was found near the mattress, Konkle said.
