SYRACUSE – No injuries were reported after a house fire Monday in Syracuse.
Turkey Creek Fire Territory was called to 511 W. Boston St. at 12:38 p.m. Monday, said Turkey Creek Fire Chief Mickey Scott.
He said smoke and fire were coming out at all four sides of the building and the windows were eventually blown out due to the heat and pressure of the fire.
NIPSCO was asked to turn off the natural gas to the house and the fire department started an offensive attack to the building, he said.
The fire department searched the home and didn’t find anyone in the building. The property owner and the occupant of the home arrived at the scene and confirmed no one was in the building.
