Firefighters made quick work of a small fire on Field Street in St. John’s just after 7 p.m. Friday night.
When firefighters arrived on scene, they found smoke coming from the home and quickly determined that a mattress had caught fire on the first floor.
The mattress and a futon were both dragged outside the home and doused with water, extinguishing the fire.
There was no damage to the home and there were no injuries.
No information was available as to what may have started the fire.
