A house on Wolfe Street in Liverpool was gutted by fire on Tuesday afternoon. No one was injured in the blaze. (Rick Conrad)<\/p><\/div>\n

Emergency crews were busy in Queens County on Tuesday as a house fire in Liverpool left a family homeless, and a motor vehicle collision snarled traffic in the Brooklyn area.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Liverpool Fire Department was called to 61 Wolfe St. shortly after 2 p.m. When firefighters arrived on the scene, the house was fully engulfed, according to Liverpool Fire Chief Trevor Munroe.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe encountered heavy fire conditions on arrival. No one was injured. We did check the homeowner but he seemed fine.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Munroe said the home\u2019s residents and their pets were outside when firefighters arrived.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Six fire departments from Liverpool, Port Medway, Mill Village, Greenfield, North Queens and Italy Cross were at the scene.<\/span><\/p>\n

Munroe didn\u2019t have many more details on Tuesday afternoon.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ll do a preliminary investigation and then turn the home back over the homeowner and they\u2019ll bring in their insurance company.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Also on Tuesday afternoon, traffic was being diverted in Brooklyn after a motor vehicle collision in the Sandy Cove area.<\/span><\/p>\n

Few other details were available late Tuesday afternoon. RCMP could not be reached for comment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
