Nobody was hurt following an early morning fire Saturday at a Dawson Road residence.

Fire crews responded to an emergency call at approximately 1:20 a.m. where they found a four-bedroom home in heavy fire and smoke conditions.

After initially attempting to fight the fire from the interior, crews shifted their attack to the exterior due to structural damage. Residents were not home at the time of the blaze, and no firefighters were injured.

"The structure had heavy fire damage so we have started an investigation, it's ongoing but we can only tell that it started in the basement somehow and worked itself up," said fire inspector Kevin Anderson.

Anderson added floors have collapsed and it is not safe at this time to conduct a thorough investigation. He did say there is no evidence to suspect foul play.
