Fire crews in Rockingham County are looking into a house fire the started around 9 p.m. Wednesday. Several crews responded to put it out.

It happened in the 10000 block of Turleytown Road, a few miles southwest of Broadway.

A police car had the street blocked off, so many neighbors had to park and walk up to their homes.

Crews haven't said who was inside the home at the time, but they're glad no one was hurt.

"There was one person home at the time of the start of the fire. It appears that the fire may have started in the attic area of the home. This fire is still under investigation. We don't know the cause yet," says Paul Helmuth, the assistant fire chief for Rockingham County.

Helmuth says it's too soon to say if the fire look suspicious.
