DENISON, Tex. -- A fire in Denison reduced a house to rubble Friday afternoon. Fire officials say they do not know whether the single story house on FM 1753 was abandoned or not.

No one was home at the time, but the house is a total loss. Crews from Bells and Denison battled the blaze. The problem was that there was no hydrant nearby. Firefighters had to continuously refill trucks and then bring them back to the scene with several thousand gallons of water.

Officials say the fire was still smoldering into the late afternoon.
