A home in St. Andrews is a complete loss following an early morning fire on Thursday.
Fire crews were called to the home on River Road shortly after 8 a.m.
“The initial report was that there may be somebody trapped inside,” said Fire Chief Ken Peacock with the RM of St. Andrews.
“We made contact with the homeowner's brother. They confirmed that there was nobody inside the building. So, the building is a complete loss. We're just taking appropriate action now and knocking the rest of the building down. There's nothing else we can do with a complete loss.”
Images from the scene show multiple firefighters working and lots of smoke pouring into the sky. Peacock said the building was filled with “a lot of debris,” which impacted how they fought the fire.
There were no injuries reported.
