CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — Fire crews responded Saturday morning to a house fire on the 400 block of Cheyenne street. The home was destroyed as heavy smoke and fire conditions caused the roof to collapse inwards.
Officials say that the boarded up windows on the home created a high heat environment inside the building, worsening the fire.
Although early reports suggested that two people were inside the building, they were found to not be inside. As such, no injuries have been reported at this time.
The cause of this fire is still under investigation. We'll continue to provide updates as more information comes to light.
