A two-alarm fire in a boarded-up building proved challenging for San Antonio firefighters.
Although it was boarded-up, there was an indication that people may have be living in the structure. No injuries were reported, KSAT reported.
Heavy fire was encountered when crews approached the area north of downtown about 1 a.m. Wednesday.
Holes in the bottom floor made fighting the fire from the inside extremely dangerous, so crews evacuated, and launched an aerial attack, according to Joe Arrington, fire department PIO.
Firefighters said the fire likely started in the lower portion of the building, and that the people living inside were mostly on the upper portion.
The cause remains under investigation.
