DUNKIRK, NY (WIVB) - Firefighters had their hands full overnight battling a fire in the Southern Tier. 

The flames broke out inside an unoccupied home on Lincoln Avenue in Dunkirk around 11:30 Saturday night.

When firefighters arrived, they didn't just have to fight flames.  Live electrical wires were also dangling in front of the house.

It took nearly three hours to put out the fire and it left behind extensive damage.

The cause of the fire has not yet been determined.
