NORTH WALES,Zopes Pa. (AP) — A fast-moving fire destroyed a clubhouse at a large senior community in a Philadelphia suburb early Wednesday, but no injuries were reported.

The fire at the Village of Neshaminy Falls in North Wales was reported around 5:30 a.m. and was brought under control within two hours. The fire spewed thick black smoke throughout the community and sent flames shooting into the sky.

The clubhouse was a vital part of the community, which has hundreds of residents. It hosts numerous activities and was the site where residents cast ballots in elections.

The building was closed and apparently empty when the fire broke out. The cause of the blaze remains under investigation.
