No one was injured early Friday morning after a vacant house caught fire in the central valley.

Crews responded about 1:45 a.m. to reports of a fire at 511 S. Tonopah Drive, near Alta and Rancho drives, according to Las Vegas Fire Department spokesman Tim Szymanski.

Crews broke through the boarded-up front door of the home to reach the fire inside, Szymanski said, and firefighters extinguished the blaze in about 30 minutes.

The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
