Crews arrived to an active fire in the first floor of the house in the 6900 block around 6:15 p.m. No occupants were home at the time of fire and no injuries were reported, Muhl said.
Muhl said crews didn’t hear any smoke alarms going off when they entered the structure, and they’ll know more about the habitability of it after more investigation.
“A lot of times we don’t want people to inhabit these structures, mainly because of the byproducts of the smoke and the combustion and the fact that it’d be toxic to them.”

The fire is currently under investigation to determine the cause and the damage estimate, but the house isn’t a total loss, Muhl said.
