ROCHESTER, N.Y. — Crews battled a house fire on Glendale Park on Saturday evening in the Edgerton neighborhood.

Around 30 firefighters battled the blaze in a single-family residence at 63 Glendale Park. Rochester firefighters responded at 5:08 p.m., finding smoke and flames from multiple windows and through the roof of the two-story home. It took crews about 30 minutes to bring the fire under control, according to the Rochester Fire Department. They used large-diameter hand lines and two elevated master streams to extinguish the fire.

The house — which was vacant, having been the site of a previous fire — was a total loss and was to undergo emergency demolition, the RFD says. A News10NBC photojournalist went to the site Sunday afternoon and found the building indeed had been demolished.

There were no injuries, and the cause of the fire is being investigated.
