Upon arrival, they found fire coming through the roof.
“Due to the advanced fire conditions and likeliness of structural collapse, crews contained the fire from a defensive position outside the structure. No entry to the building for (a) search was possible due to the fire conditions,” French told News Center 7.
The duplex is considered a total loss. No injuries were reported.
This structure has also been the site of multiple fires, French said.
An emergency demolition has been ordered. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
