One person suffered minor smoke inhalation injuries during an early morning house fire Monday in Aurora.

Aurora fire officials said they were called to the split-level, single-family home on the 1000 block of Pennsylvania Avenue just after 1 a.m.

Firefighters encountered fire showing from the home upon arrival.

A 56-year-old male resident was taken to an area hospital, while a 57-year-old female resident was treated at the scene. No injuries were reported by firefighters.

The house was deemed uninhabitable, but the residents were able to find a place to stay while repairs are made to the home, fire officials said.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
