Fire Breaks Out Saturday Night In House On Miracle Temple Church's Property, Firefighter Suffers Minor Injuries

LOTHIAN, Md. (WJZ) — An investigation is underway into the cause of a large fire on the property of a church in Anne Arundel County.

Flames broke out inside the large house that is divided in several apartments on the grounds of the Miracle Temple Church in Lothian Saturday night.

The two-alarm fire was tough to put out at first because the flames were inside the walls.

However, one firefighter suffered a "traumatic injury that was not life-threatening."

The firefighter was taken to Anne Arundel Medical Center in good condition, officials said.

The Red Cross is helping three adults who were living in the building. No civilians were injured.
