Lockport — A Lockport home sustained damage after an attic fire Wednesday, authorities said.
The Lockport Township Fire Protection District responded to reports of a structure fire in the 500 block of West Street in Lockport at 4:38 p.m. Wednesday, according to a news release.
Firefighters arrived at the home to find an attic fire in progress in one unit of a ranch duplex, according to a social media statement posted Thursday.
Crews were able to extinguish the fire before it spread to the other half of the duplex.
No injuries were reported, as the affected unit was unoccupied because of ongoing renovations, according to the release.
The adjacent unit has minimal damage, but no residents were injured.
Utilities have been shut off to the unit, authorities said.
Authorities believe the fire was accidental, although the cause remains under investigation by the Lockport Township Fire Protection District.
Crews from the Homer Township Fire Protection District assisted.
