The fire was reported about 2:30 a.m. early Monday morning at a home on Main Street in Crescent Township, officials said.
Arthur Stiffler, who lives in the home, said he was watching TV on his back porch when the fire broke out. He said he ran upstairs and found his son laying on floor with burns to his feet and legs.
“The flames were so high,” said Stiffler, adding, “It was just black smoke in the stairwell and in the house. You couldn’t take a couple of breaths, you would just pass out.”
Stiffler said he got his wife and son out of the house. Stiffler’s son was taken to UPMC Mercy Hospital.
The two firefighters were also hospitalized with one suffering a back injury and the other a knee injury.
Stiffler’s 90-year-old mother was taken from another part of the structure and some neighbors were also evacuated.

Beaver County Commissioners approved Susquehanna Accounting and Consulting of Harrisburg as part time financial consultant by a 2-1 vote at Thursday’s regular meeting. Sandie Egley voted no and Dan Camp and Tony Amadio voted yes. Amadio voted by telephone hookup since he is home recovering from back surgery.
Susquehanna will be paid between 235 and 265 dollars per hour not to exceed 40 thousand. Susquehanna has already started preparation of the 2019 county budget.
In another matter, District Attorney David Lozier disagrees with Egley’s criticism of his authorizing 400 hours overtime so far in the DelTondo murder case. Lozier says Egley is looking at the matter from strictly a budget point of view. Lozier says those close to DelTondo would want everything possible done to solve the case. Lozier says he has money in the budget to pay the overtime although other investigations will have to be adjusted between now and the end of the year. Limited as to what he can say about the case, Lozier says, overall, he is pleased with progress in the investigation.
