PHOTOS: Massive flames could be seen shooting from an abandoned Cleveland church early Thursday morning.
The building was fully engulfed as SkyFOX was over the scene shortly before 7:30 a.m. The church, located near the corner of E. 91st Street and Miles Park, has been identified as the former Pentecostal Determine Church of God. According to the Cuyahoga County Auditor’s website, the church was built in 1872.
Fire officials said the building is vacant and no injuries were reported.
Fire officials also said the building is four stories tall and there was concern walls could collapse. Fire crews battled the blaze from the outside and said they would only enter the building if they believed someone was inside. Officials noted the roof of the church had previously collapsed before the fire started, and there was other prior structural damage to the building as well.
