(SALEM, Ore.) - Salem firefighters responded to a single-story residual structure fire located at 515 19th street SE this morning at 8:39 a.m.

Fire Department Spokesman Bill Holmstron says the first arriving firefighters discovered flames and smoke coming form the residence.

"Firefighters received multiple reports of a person still inside. Although after a primary and secondary search no victims were discovered inside. A second alarm was called at 8:46 a.m. bringing more fire fighters and equipment to the scene."

Holmstrom says firefighters battled the fire about 15-minutes before they had the fire under control.

A neighboring two-story apartment complex at 525-535 19th Street SE also received damage due to heat.

No injuries were report at the time of the release.

Fire investigators are on scene conducting their investigation.
