A man who was in the house escaped before firefighters arrived about 2:20 a.m. He was not injured, McKinney said.

Firefighters extinguished the blaze in the two-story wood-frame house at 3729 W Liberty. McKinney said a space heater had been placed too close to a bed and the bed caught fire.

The house did not have any working smoke alarms, she said.
