Posted — UpdatedCHAPEL HILL, N.C. — Firefighters from Chapel Hill, Durham, Carrboro and the New Hope Fire Department battled a smoky blaze in a home on Deming Drive, east of downtown, Thursday morning.
Smoke and fire were showing from the multistory house at 421 Deming Drive when firefighters arrived. No one was inside at the time, they said, and no injuries to firefighters were reported.
It took crews almost two hours to get the fire under control.
