DUNKIRK, Md. — Three adults, one child and three dogs have been displaced after a house fire in early Tuesday morning in Dunkirk, Maryland, officials said. 

Around 12:35 a.m., firefighters responded to the 6400 block of Bob White Court. 

When crews arrived to the scene, they found heavy fire throughout the home. The fire went to a second alarm and a tanker task force was requested due to the lack of hydrants in the area.

It took 90 minutes and 66 firefighters to bring the flames under control.

Officials said the home is a complete loss. It is too early to estimate the cost of damages. Officials are waiting until the morning the begin the investigation.
