HAMPTON, Va.(WAVY)– About 35 firefighters in Hampton responded to a fire early Tuesday morning.

According to officials, crews were called to the 0 block of Teakwood Court at 2:47 a.m. for the report of a residential structure fire. When crews arrived, they found flames coming from the roof.

Crews were able to get the fire out in 30 minutes. No one was home during the time of the fire, but officials believe someone does live there.

A neighbor, Nathaniel Bryant, told 10 On Your Side his family called 911 after his godson noticed flames and smoke coming from the home.

“Out of nowhere it was just, ‘oh my God, the house is on fire.’ You know, he got us up. And immediately from there, it was just jump up, get dressed and kind of see what was going on,” Bryant said. “Just to see something like this unexpectedly and it happened so fast, it’s kind of just a mind-blowing thing.”

Bryant said he has been trying to get in contact with his neighbor because he doesn’t know if the neighbor is aware a fire destroyed his home of several years. According to the neighbor, a man lived in the house with his mother who died a few years ago.

“That’s the devastating part,” Bryant said. “Just realizing that you home was there and coming back and you literally have nothing, you know. It’s going to be devastating. So, you know, my concern is kind of for him and, you know, what his mind state will be with that, because this was kind of that, the last thing that he had of his mom. So, you know, I know that’s going to really hit home hard.”

No injuries were reported.

Dominion Energy and Virginia Natural Gas were also on scene due to power lines and gas lines needing to be cut.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.
