A man has injured his arm while trying to get out of a house on fire at a Biloela property overnight.

Emergency crews were called to a house fire at a Grevillea St house while four occupants were inside the home.

A Queensland Fire and Emergency Service spokeswoman said three firefighter crews were called to the scene at 1.50am.

She said the house was “well involved” at the time they arrived and the fire was not put out until 40 minutes later.

A Queensland Police Service spokeswoman said all occupants had been accounted for and a crime scene was declared at 3.20am.

A Queensland Ambulance Service spokeswoman said one man was taken to Biloela Hospital for an arm injury he “sustained while he tried to get out”.

The spokeswoman confirmed none of the other occupants were injured or burned.

The QFES spokeswoman said fire crews were called back to the house this morning as the fire started igniting again before 9am.

More to come.
