Firefighters Battle Blaze On Youngstown's South Side


Youngstown fire crews were kept busy Tuesday, battling a vacant house fire at the corner of Dewey and Gibson on the city's south side.

The house was engulfed in flames when fire crews arrived on scene around 8:30 p.m. and they just let the structure burn. It collapsed within 20 minutes.

Firefighters did pour water onto a house next door to keep it from catching fire. No word on how the fire started.
