(Cleveland)- White County firefighters, with automatic aid from the City of Cleveland, responded to the report of a possible structure fire on Ostrich Drive off of Duncan Bridge Road early Wednesday morning.

White County Fire Department spokeswoman Ana Newberry said in an email, upon fire department arrival, it was confirmed that the 4,000 square foot home located at 238 Ostrich Drive was fully involved with flames.

Newberry also said that firefighters  confirmed that no one was in the residence at the time of the fire. No injuries were reported, however, fire trucks from both county and city had issues with the long narrow driveway which required assistance in getting the trucks out of the mud.

Firefighters were on scene for 5 ½ hours.

State Fire Investigator Robi Wilkins was called to the scene and the incident is presently under investigation.
