Fire Fought On Atchison's KS Avenue

(KAIR)--Residents of an Atchison home are displaced following an early Monday morning fire. 

According to a report from the Atchison Fire Department, firefighters were called to 914 Kansas Avenue shortly before 5:20 in the morning. When they arrived, they found flames coming from the 2nd floor of the two story structure, as well as from the roof area. Firefighters were able to quickly suppress the fire, but remained on the scene well into the morning for precautionary measures. 

There's no immediate word of what may have caused the fire as the investigation continues. 

Captain Ron Pennington says power has been pulled from the home, making it uninhabitable for the time being.
