At 2:20 p.m. this afternoon, several Salina Fire Department vehicles responded to a residential fire at 322 Russell Avenue in Central Salina.
Salina Fire Department Deputy Chief Shane Pearson said the house was unoccupied when first responders arrived, and three engines, two ambulances, a ladder truck and heavy rescue reported to the incident.
"No injuries to anyone, no injuries to firefighters," Pearson said. "It [the fire] is under investigation as of now."
Pearson said the fire began outside at the back of the house, but firefighters climbed onto the roof to access the attic to stamp out any hot spots from the blaze.
Salina Police Department officers and detectives roamed the scene and knocked on neighboring houses' doors for further investigation.
