One person was injured in a fire at a house at Hastings Farm on Hill Street in Suffield.
Fire officials said they responded early Monday morning to reports of a fire on the property at 472 Hill Street. When they arrived on scene they found flames showing from a second floor window. Firefighters were able to contain the fire to one room.
A minor suffered minor injuries and was taken to the hospital as a precaution. No other injuries were reported.
Mutual aid was called in to bring in tankers to provide water.
"We are a rural area. We don't have water. The closest hydrant is well over a quarter mile away. We would have had to start shuttling if this fire got away from us," said Suffield Fire Chief Chuck Flynn.
The house has smoke damage and is uninhabitable for the time, fire officials said.
