10:29pm–#Bridgeport CT–A quick thinking homeowner realized that his couch was on fire and quickly brought it outside to keep it from spreading to the rest of the house at 1209 Wood Avenue.   Firefighters were quick to the scene and reported wood burning in the front of the home.  Smoke remained in the home and firefighters ventilated the structure.  Neighbor and witness  Jackie whom I had the pleasure of meeting tonight said the homeowner was a big man who had no problem removing the couch on his own.  There were no reported injuries.
