“We made an offensive push at the building. Crews were pushed back due to heat and a partial collapse of the attic. We transitioned to defensive operations and we’ve been continuing that,” said Deerfield Fire Chief Matthew Fisher.
Around 35 firefighters worked to put out the flames.
Deerfield fire said they are still working to find the missing person and the two dogs.
