FALCONER — A village home was destroyed in a massive fire that broke out late Thursday.

The fire was reported at about 9:45 p.m. at a residence located on the corner of North Work and East Falconer streets. Fire officials were told that all occupants had managed to get out, though it wasn’t known by press time Thursday whether there were any injuries.

Several departments, including Kennedy, Kiantone and the city of Jamestown, responded to the village.

By about 10 p.m., massive flames could be seen shooting from the front of the property. Much of the fire was knocked down shortly after.

Ellicott police also responded late Thursday.

The cause of the fire was not known.

More information will be released when it becomes available.
