Just after  1 p.m., Sunday, Dec. 26, the Wheeling Fire Department was called to a house fire on Richmond Ave in the Mozart neighborhood. 
When the first responding engine company arrived, flames were seen coming from the second floor and attic area of the house. The home occupants were able to escape unharmed and no firefighters were hurt during the incident. The house was damaged from the fire and smoke and is likely a total loss. Wheeling Fire Investigators will work to determine a cause.
