Crawford County firefighters respond to a structure fire southwest of Pittsburg.

Yesterday at around 5:00pm, crews arrived to find heavy smoke and flames coming from the rear of the home. Crawford County Sheriff's deputies reached the scene first and confirmed no one was inside the structure. Firefighters also located a dog that was initially believed to be trapped inside.

Fire District 1 received assistance from Crawford County Fire Districts 2 and 3, the Pittsburg Fire Department, Crawford County EMS and the Crawford County Sheriff's Office. CCFD says the hot and humid conditions took a toll on crews, with one firefighter treated at the scene for heat-related stress. Firefighters remained on scene for about two hours.
