Fire crews were called to reports that a person was in the two storey building on Markham Avenue but after a thorough search by fire-fighters wearing breathing apparatus it was confirmed that no-one was involved.
West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue sent two appliances from Killingbeck and one from Moortown to tackle the blaze which covered a 20 x 20 metre space on the ground floor, which was half of the floor space.
They used 3 hose reels and four fire-fighters wearing breathing apparatus were sent into the building after getting the report at just before 10.50pm on Tuesday.
