It was a conflagration that spread quickly.

At least 60 firefighters sped to the scene of a 3-alarm house fire on Parkcrest Dr. in the Kingston and Markham Road area Thursday. Flames broke out around 2:20pm and were out of control before crews arrived. Toronto Fire officials don’t believe anyone was home at the time.

One firefighter broke his foot fighting the flames.

There’s no word yet on a cause but damage is estimated to be around $300,000.
