Crews Battle House Fire In Plum

PLUM (KDKA) -- Crews battled a house fire in Plum on Friday night.

It started just before 9 p.m. at the intersection of Unity Center Road and Scott Road.

Videos posted by the Unity Volunteer Fire Department show smoke pouring from the home and flames through the roof.

Nobody was injured.

The fire chief says they couldn't get inside the building due to the heavy smoke and flames.

"When we showed up, there was pretty much fire coming out all four sides. It's been vacant for over a year, according to the neighbors. Nobody was home, so no one's been hurt so far. We've been kind of working to try to get it, but unfortunately, there's no floor in the house, so we can only get it from the outside," Unity VFD Chief Glenn Kopec Jr. said.

Neighbors say another house just down the street went up in flames about a year ago.

The cause of the fire has not yet been determined.
