Youngstown fire crews responded to a vacant house fire at the corner of Dewey and Gibson on the city's South Side Tuesday.

The house was engulfed when fire crews arrived on scene around 8:30 p.m., and they let the structure burn.  It collapsed within 20 minutes.

Firefighters did spray water onto a house next door to keep it from catching fire.

There is no word on how the fire started.
