SAN ANTONIO \u2013 Two firefighters were hospitalized after a \u201csignificant\u201d fire broke out at an East Side home Friday evening, according to the San Antonio Fire Department.<\/p>\n
Six units responded just after 5 p.m. to the home on Nolan Street near North Cherry Street, the department said, with a total of 42 firefighters on scene.<\/p>\n
Fire crews said they initially attempted to conduct a search while making an \u201caggressive interior attack,\u201d but adjusted its approach after strong winds increased the flames.<\/p>\n
While attempting to extinguish the flames, two firefighters were injured when part of the ceiling collapsed inside the home, SAFD said. Their condition is unknown at the time of publication.<\/p>\n
The home was occupied by a 99-year-old woman, a nearby resident told KSAT. However, another resident said she moved to an assisted living facility.<\/p>\n
The department does not believe anyone was inside the home at the time of the fire, and there have been no additional injuries or deaths reported.<\/p>\n
The home is being considered a total loss, SAFD said, and the cause of the fire remains under investigation.<\/p>\n
