BONITA SPRINGS, Fla. — Multiple fire crews were called to a home on the 26100 block of Pueblo Bonito Blvd. Tuesday morning.

The fire happened before 6 a.m. and flames were knocked out by 7 a.m.

The extent of the damage is not known. There were no injuries reported; investigators at the scene said the duplex was unoccupied at the time.

"The inside of the building is definitely a complete loss, so they're going to have to mitigate that," said Nichole Hornberger with Bonita Springs Fire. "It is under construction and it looks like they were doing renovations."

The state fire marshal's office arrived on the scene to investigate around 7 a.m., with a second unit called about an hour later. A cause has yet to be determined.
