FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- An investigation is underway to determine what caused a house fire Saturday morning in central Fresno.
Officials say flames broke out at the home on Fruit and Brown just before 4:30 am.
When crews arrived, they saw the fire ripping through one side of the house. Those flames threatened the neighbor's home next door.
Units were on scene for at least five hours working to knock the fire down.
Investigators are calling the house a hoarder home and they say a lot of property was piled up inside the house, keeping the fire burning strong.
The house is considered a complete loss.
