Investigators are examining the origin and cause of the blaze.

Overview

  • Crews were dispatched around 4:15 a.m. to the 3000 block of Springhurst Commons Drive, finding flames showing through the roof.
  • Because the roof collapsed, firefighters operated from the exterior and knocked down the fire in about 45 minutes.
  • Twenty-five Anchorage Middletown Fire & EMS members responded to the scene, and no civilians were inside.
  • One firefighter suffered burns to the hand and was treated on site, officials said.
  • Louisville Arson has opened an investigation, and the WLKY report contains conflicting references to the neighborhood as northwest and northeast Louisville.
