The incident occurred at 948 North Emery Street, where firefighters were dispatched for a reported structure fire. Upon arrival, crews confirmed a working fire in the basement of a middle-of-row home, prompting an aggressive interior and rescue operation.

Authorities say at least one person was rescued from the roof of the home as conditions inside rapidly deteriorated. Firefighters worked quickly to bring the blaze under control and prevent extension to neighboring properties.

No official word yet on injuries or the cause of the fire. The investigation remains ongoing.

Fire crews remained on scene for a period of time conducting overhaul and checking for hotspots.
