No one was injured when a fire broke out Tuesday at a house in Bishop's Falls, although five people were left without a place to live.

Two adults had been living on the main floor of the house, on Main Street.

Three other people were living in a basement apartment that included a converted garage.

No one was at home when the fire broke out on Tuesday afternoon. Damage to the house was extensive, and the cause remains unclear.
