ROCHESTER, NY - On Friday, October 2nd at 10:45 P.M., Rochester firefighters responded to the intersection of Bay and Fifth Streets for multiple calls reporting a house fire. First-due units found heavy fire venting from the rear of a two-story house at 195 Fifth Street. Efforts to search the structure for occupants were hampered by a large amount of debris that was stored in the home. It was later determined to be vacant. A detached garage on the property was also damaged. The blaze was brought under control in about 25 minutes. There were no injuries reported. The Rochester Fire Investigation Unit is continuing its investigation into the cause of the fire.
