Tulsa fire investigators are looking into a Tuesday morning fire at a vacant home. Fire crews were called to the home near 4th and Rockford at about 8:15 AM.

When they arrived, they were told that a previous owner had left paint and other flammables inside, so they were forced to take extra precautions. They were able to get the fire under control in about ten minutes.

Fire officials say there were no utilities running to the home, but there had been reports of transients in and out of it.
