COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

There were no injuries reported after first responders had a street blocked off in Fulton on Thursday for a house fire.

Fulton fire crews responded to the scene of a house engulfed in flames in the 500 block of West 7th Street just after 7:30 p.m. According to a press release, crews were able to get the fire under control at 8:13 p.m.

The cause of the fire has not been determined, according to the release. More than one Fulton Fire Department truck was on the scene around 9:30 p.m.

Fire officials said in the release that firefighters found a home fully involved and a neighboring home starting to catch fire.

Neighbors told an ABC 17 News reporter that they did not know of anyone living in the building where the fire occurred for some time.

A neighbor described damage occurring to her home that was nearby.

"I  just saw the smoke, so I run out to try to get my cat. But she [was] scared. And then I was looking. I have a flower bed right beside the house back there. And it was on fire before the firemen even got here," neighbor Suzie Garriott said. "But they did put it out."

Fulton police and the Callaway County Sheriff's Office helped with traffic control.
