No one was injured in a house fire Saturday morning in southeast Columbia, according to a Columbia Fire Department press release.

CFD was called to Stone Hill Drive around 6:15 a.m. on Saturday, the report states. Smoke was reported to be coming from the area, and the person who called 911 thought it may have been an outside fire.

Crews arrived within four minutes and found flames coming from a one-story house surrounded by heavy brush.

Firefighters used a ladder to enter the home through the windows, but found no victims inside. The blaze was under control in around 30 minutes.

The cause of the fire is under investigation. CFD spokesperson Katherine Rodriguez reminded drivers on Old 63 S to avoid the area as fire crews continue work at the scene Saturday afternoon.
