KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Crews are investigating after a house was destroyed in a fire early Sunday morning in Overland Park, Kansas. According to Overland Park Fire Department, just before 3:30 a.m., crews from Overland Park, Olathe and Leawood Fire Departments were dispatched to a residential neighborhood on reports of a house fire near 141st Street and Nieman Road. Upon arrival, the first units reported seeing a heavy fire coming out of the roof of the two-story home. OPFD said crews began an "offensive fire attack" inside. However, they later discovered that the fire hadn't burned just through the ceiling, but the floor. It took almost 2 hours to bring an overnight house fire at 141st & Nieman under control. Residents were out of town. Fire called in by passerby. No injuries are reported. The cause is under investigation.
