Fire crews used multiple hoselines to darken the fire. A city backhoe was requested to assist in deconstructing the structure so complete extinguishment could occur.

No other property was damaged and no injuries were reported.

Fire crews remained on the scene to assist the resident with removing several firearms and personal items from a safe that was buried in the structure.
