A house was destroyed by fire in Hamilton Township early Friday morning.

At approximately 12:40 a.m. Hamilton Township Fire Department responded to a structure fire on Dale Road just west of Ontario Street.

As firefighters were responding they were told by dispatch there were several 9-1-1 calls indicating the structure was on fire.

When fire crews arrived on scene the home was engulfed in flames.
