The occupants of the home and a family member were treated for smoke inhalation.

The Levittown Fire Department responded to multiple calls for a house fire on Woodcock Lane Tuesday at 10:06 p.m. 

Arriving units found heavy smoke and fire coming from the two-story home. Fire fighters quickly got water on the fire and tended to the four occupants of the home who were taken to a local hospital for possible smoke inhalation.

A fifth family member arrived at the scene after the fire was extinguished, collapsed on the sidewalk and was transported to the hospital.
