Seven children and one adult are without a home after a fire in Sumter.

It happened around 2:45 p.m. on Saturday at a mobile home in the 1000 block of Belmont Drive. Officials say the fire appears to have started in the kitchen and when firefighters arrived about 40% of the home was in flames. Officials say one person - who was not a firefighter - was injured, possibly cut, while trying to get into the home.

Firefighters quickly got it under control. The cause has not been determined. The Red Cross is assisting the family.
