(KLZA)-- Fire fighters from the Verdon and Falls City Rural Fire Departments responded to a fire call about 10:30 Monday morning between Falls City and Salem.
Falls City Rural Fire Department Fire Chief Mike Ramsey said a vacant house on the property owned by Delemer Hullman was completely engulfed in flames by the time fire fighters arrived on the scene.
The fire started when debris was being burned around the outside the home. Steady winds pushed the fire to dry grass around the house and led to the house catching on fire.
The house was destroyed by the fire. No injuries were reported.
In addition to the area fire departments, the Falls City Volunteer Ambulance Squad and Richardson County Sheriff's Department responded to the scene.
