AKRON, Ohio - Akron firefighters battled a fire that destroyed an office building at Timber Top Apartments Tuesday morning.
The fire caused the roof to collapse in on itself but no one was inside the building.
Akron firefighters on scene told NewsChannel5 they struggled with water pressure in battling the fire but it is mostly out now.
Traffic in the area of the fire on Portage Trail was not affected.
An investigation on the cause of the fire is currently under way but police said it did not appear to be suspicious.
