Around 5 p.m., firefighters were called to the 5900 block of Sorrel Tree Road for the blaze. The fire was caused when a man was cooking in the kitchen and caught some paper on fire.
The paper was thrown in the trash after the fire was thought to be put out, but the fire ignited in the trash can, Rockford Fire reported.
The home was deemed unsafe for living by Rockford’s Building Department after the incident.
The Red Cross is assisting the two residents who were displaced. The blaze caused $24,000 in damages but no one was injured.
