Paramedics treated a man in his 60s for smoke inhalation and took him to the hospital in serious condition following a fire that destroyed a one-story home in Wahiawa early this morning.

Nine fire companies with 31 firefighters arrived at 63 Ilima St. at 5:23 a.m. to find the structure fully engulfed in flames. The blaze was brought under control 30 minutes later.

Four people were in the building when the fire was reported.

A fire investigator also was called to determine cause of the fire.

There was no immediate damage assessment.

The American Red Cross has been notified to assist the family.
