A man sustained first and second degree burns in a house fire Saturday morning on Kauai, the county said in a news release.

The male was a resident of the single story home on Hakuaina Road in Anahola.

Police dispatch was notified of the fire at about 9:08 a.m. The home was fully engulfed in flames by the time firefighters arrived just before 9:20 a.m.

The fire was under control by 9:32 a.m. and extinguished at 9:56 a.m.
