Youngstown firefighters responded to a house fire on the city's north side Wednesday morning.

First calls about the blaze came in around 7 a.m. for a home on Saranac Avenue.

Officials say the home is vacant but it seems that someone was in the middle of fixing it up.

Firefighters said the utilities to the home were shut off but the front door was on fire when they got there.

They do not know how the door ended up on fire but are investigating.
