Philadelphia firefighters battled a fire that destroyed a Dollar Tree store Sunday.

Customers who were in the store evacuated and there were no injuries, 6ABC reported.

The fire, reported at 3:30 p.m., went to two alarms. 

"I saw like yellow smoke, so I come and look and that's when I started taking videos and that's when like an explosion -- like a ball of fire started happening," said Kanner Maldonado of Frankford.

The cause is under investigation.
