ATLANTA — Flames ripped through an Edgewood home on Tuesday as storms rumbled through town. Now, fire investigators believe the storms may have played a role in the fire itself.
Crews from the Atlanta Fire Department were working to put out flames at a house fire near the intersection of Hardee Street and Mayson Avenue in northeast Atlanta.
According to a tweet from the fire department, everyone inside the house made it out safely. The tweet indicates that the fire was believed to have been caused by a possible lightning strike on a nearby power pole.
Fire department video shows heavy flames coming from the upper story of the two-story home as firefighters work to push back the blaze.
No injuries have been reported.
