A man was forced out of his north Phoenix home on the morning of Dec. 31 after he woke up to a fire burning in his bedroom.

According to Capt. Scott Douglas with Phoenix Fire, crews responded to the home just after 6 a.m. near 27th and Northern Avenues and found heavy smoke and flames coming from the bedroom.
