Fire department spokesman Tim Szymanski reported heavy fire and smoke were showing from the garage of the single-family house.
The house is just one block across from Fire Station 41 and as firefighters were leaving the station, they could see heavy black smoke coming from the house, according to a release Saturday night.
The fire department later confirmed there was a large amount of ammunition in the garage and it was exploding during the fire. Firefighters fought the blaze from a safe distance outside until they felt the ammunition was no longer a danger.

That was a .22lr hoarders house. He was at wal mart when it caught fire. No worries though, he had it insured for 100.00 a brick.
