The home’s second story collapsed, and the entire front part of the roof was gone by the time the fire was extinguished, SAFD said.
A battalion chief requested the city tear down the home, SAFD said.
The cause of the fire is under investigation. However, an SAFD spokesperson said in an email to KSAT a cause might not be determined due to the home’s pending demolition.
