A person is dead after a house fire in New Kensington on Thursday, the Westmoreland County coroner said. 

According to the coroner, a passerby called 911 after seeing smoke and flames coming from the home on Stawn Avenue on Thursday. After putting out the flames, the coroner said firefighters found Amy Seguiti dead inside. 

"It was a very bad fire. The second floor received a lot of damage. The fire gutted out the front bedroom and the upstairs common area outside the bedroom," said New Kensington Fire Chief Ed Saliba. 

Another person was taken to the hospital, and two firefighters were also injured while battling the blaze. 

"They were steam burns on their arms and they had full protective clothing on. No skin was exposed, but the fire was a very hot fire," said Saliba.  

Two cats were saved from the fire, and firefighters gave them oxygen while at the scene. 

The cause of the fire is undetermined, but the fire chief says the weather conditions amplified the fire. 

"The wind created a flow path for the fire and its intensity just went against us," Saliba said. 

Seguiti's cause and manner of death are pending an autopsy and toxicology results.

New Kensington police and the Pennsylvania State Police fire marshal are investigating, the coroner says.  

The two injured firefighters are expected to make a full recovery.
