A suspicious house fire sends adults and children out onto the streets overnight.

It happened near 3200 N. Frankfort in Tulsa around 3:20am.

Tulsa fire department said five people, two children and three adults, were displaced but no one was hurt. District Chief Bennie Herring said power to the home was "bootlegged" from a nearby pole. There were no gas or water utility services hooked to the home either.

The scene got more peculiar once fighters made their way inside.

"The house is very full from weed eaters to motorcycles to boxes of clothing. It's packed from one end to the other,"

Investigators would not rule out a cause on scene. Two men were placed in hand cuffs for a short time, but were later released.
