It's believed that excessive clutter inside the Main Street home may have contributed to the second fire.

Stoneham police were at the same home on Thursday, when a man tried to shoot his way through a door in order to reach someone trapped in the burning house. Officers called firefighters, who rescued the trapped resident.

The man who had the gun was licensed to carry a firearm and is not facing charges.
