INDIANAPOLIS — Indianapolis Fire Department crews worked early Tuesday to knock down a large building fire on Indianapolis' near east side.
Firefighters responded to the 1700 block of East Ohio Street, just east of North State Avenue, shortly before 4 a.m. for a report of a building fire. There, they saw heavy smoke and flames coming from a two-story building. Fire officials said they believe the building was vacant.
Flames were visible for miles as crews battled the fire, which was brought under control in under half an hour.
No injuries were reported from the fire, IFD told 13News.
East Ohio Street was expected to be closed for a while Tuesday morning due to a water main break near the scene of the fire.
