Video captured by the Global One News helicopter showed the home’s roof and the entire structure itself collapsing. Soon after, the home already appeared to be gutted by the flames aside from some wood beams.

The fire department said the home was occupied when the fire broke out but everyone got out safely and no injuries were reported. There was no immediate word on what caused the fire.

Westbound traffic on Highway 627 was being rerouted onto Winterburn Road while crews responded to the fire.
