SAN ANTONIO – San Antonio fire crews are working to determine the cause of a vacant house fire on the city's Northeast Side early Thursday morning.
Firefighters were called around 5 a.m. to the home in the 2700 block of Nacogdoches Road, which is located not far from Broadway Street and Loop 410.
Firefighters said when they arrived heavy flames were both inside the home and seen coming through the roof. The fire however was put out in just ten minutes, fire officials said.
Investigators said the back door was found open and that it was a passerby that originally called in the fire. They said there was no evidence of squatters.
Officials say they haven't ruled out faulty wiring as the cause. The damage estimate is said to be roughly $70,000.
The San Antonio Fire Department website said as many as 10 fire units responded to the call. No one was hurt.
