(KAIR)--A rural Delia home is considered a total loss following a Tuesday night fire that caused no injuries but left the family displaced.

A release from Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse says his office was called to 13626 E. Road, north of Delia in southwestern Jackson County, shortly after 10:00 Tuesday night, following the report of a structure fire. The Sheriff's Office was joined at the scene by fire crews from Delia, Mayetta, Hoyt, and the Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation, as well as Jackson County EMS, as firefighters battled the blaze into the early morning hours of Wednesday. According to Morse, the fire fighting efforts ended around 4:00.

The home was occupied at the time of the fire, but all occupants were able to evacuate without injury.

The Sheriff's Office is working with the Kansas Fire Marshal's Office in investigating the cause of the fire.
