Firefighters were on the roof of the home in the 5200 block of 45th SW dealing with a fire that was producing a lot of smoke in the upper floors of the home.
A house in the 5200 block of 45th SW that was having some roofing done was the scene of a fire on Sunday shortly after 6pm.
The home, which was once located in the Morgan Junction area and made the move to the block some years ago had roofing materials in place atop the steeply pitched roof. The owner said she had left for about 30 minutes and came back to find the roof over her bathroom in the back of the house in flames. She called 911, grabbed a hose in the bathroom and tried to put out the fire. Firefighters arrived and quickly cut holes in the roof to gain access and vent the fire.
No one was hurt in the fire, the woman's pet had been taken to a neighbor's home.
No official cause or damage estimate has yet been released.
