A man was injured late Tuesday night in a fire in north Spokane.

Firefighters were called to a home at 1714 N. Post St. about 9:30 p.m.

A man trapped on the second floor jumped out of the burning home. He was injured at taken to a local hospital, Spokane Fire Chief Brian Schaeffer said.

The fire started in the home’s kitchen and spread quickly to cabinets and other parts of the home, Schaeffer said.

No other injuries were reported but the fire still was burning as of 10:45 p.m.

Two people were in the home at the time of the fire, said Shawn Massingale. She said she was sleeping in her bedroom when her dogs woke her.

“The noise was what woke me up of them trying to got out my back bedroom door,” she said.

One door to her bedroom was blocked by smoke and flames. But she was able to escape by another door.

A third roommate was not at home, she said.

She said the man who escaped out the second floor did not suffer significant injuries. Massingale identified her roommate as Paul Ellery. She said he is over 6-feet tall and simply hung out the window before dropping. She said he was not hurt.
