A small radio somehow caught fire outside of a Lakeview Avenue home early Monday morning, igniting a portion of the home's siding, officials said.

According to RVC Fire Department Chief John Busching, the call came in around 5:05 a.m. after a neighbor saw smoke coming from behind the home. The fire was extinguished quickly, he said, and no one was injured.
