Area firefighters responded to a structure fire at approximately 3:10 on Saturday morning.
Piedmont units arrived at 510 North Centre Avenue in just minutes and began to battle the blaze in a two-story wooden home with mutual aid provided by the Spring Garden Fire Department. The heat from the blaze was so great it was placing the other nearby buildings in danger as well. Water was also sprayed to keep all neighboring structures safe.
At this point heavy flames were visible – fortunately firefighters were able to bring the blaze under control quickly.
We’ll have additional information as it becomes available.
