(Pittsburgh, PA) A fire occurred at a home in the South Side Slopes of Pittsburgh this morning which caused four firefighters that battled it to get taken to the hospital. The cause of this fire that occurred at around 8 a.m. this morning at a home on Monastery Avenue is still under investigation. When battling this fire, the four firefighters got shocked because their ladder made contact with a power line that was live. According to the commander of this incident, when they rolled up to it this morning, they found a significant fire on the third floor. Nobody was inside the home when the fire occurred and flames were going out of the roof of that building. According to Pittsburgh Bureau of Fire Assistant Chief Matthew Davis, all four firefighters are in stable condition after they were taken to UPMC Mercy Hospital in Pittsburgh this morning.
