BEDFORD (WSLS 10) - Two people are displaced after a house fire.

Upon arrival, crews reported the house was in flames and minutes later the roof collapsed.

Authorities said the house is a total house and the two adult residents were not home at the time of the fire.

There was no insurance on the house and two nearby vehicles were damaged from the blaze.

No one was hurt.

Investigators said the fire likely started at or near where a woodstove was being used, but the damage to the home kept them from identifying a specific cause of the fire.
