MURRYSVILLE (KDKA) -- A fast-moving fire spread from a vehicle to a carport, and then a home on the Plum-Murrysville border late Thursday night.
The blaze broke out just before 10 p.m. in the 200 block of Ridge Lane in the Clover Leaf communities housing development.
Some of the same firefighters that fought a fierce fire only hours earlier on Arnold Street in nearby New Kensington were also called to this blaze, just 11 miles away.
The housing development is a 55 and over community.
Firefighters on the scene tell KDKA that a vehicle fire spread to the carport and then the adjacent home. Billowing smoke could be seen for miles.
There's no word on what caused the fire or whether there were any injuries.
Dozens of fire departments were called to the scene.
In addition to fighting the blaze in sub-zero temperatures, there were also reports of firefighters having issues with the water supply from nearby hydrants.
