By Frank Gerace

A weekend house fire that displaced 2 people in the Milltown area is blamed on an electrical malfunction.

State Fire Marshal's investigators say the fire started in a second-floor bedroom in the house in the 25 hundred block of Grendon Drive Saturday night.

A 55-year-old man suffered second-and third-degree burns to his hand and foot, and was treated and released from Crozer-Chester Burn Center.

Damage to the house is estimated at 50 thousand dollars.
