Fire crews battle blaze at Vancouver home

Vancouver Fire Rescue was called to a large blaze at a three-storey home in Vancouver Friday afternoon.

Smoke and flames were visible coming out of the roof of the home, located at West 17th Avenue near Manitoba Street, when crews arrived, says Asst. Chief Keith Stewart.

No firefighter injuries have been reported.

Over 30 firefighters were called to the scene, Stewart says.

Nobody was in the house, which appears to be under construction.

More to come.
