Several firefighters were injured while battling a house fire overnight, the McKinney Fire Department said Sunday morning.

According to the department, at about 9:11 p.m. Saturday, firefighters were called to a home in the 7400 block of Joshua Tree Trail, south of Gabe Nesbitt Park, after a report of a fire in a bedroom.

When crews arrived, they saw thick smoke from the two-story home and began "an aggressive interior attack," officials said in a news release.

More crews were called in to assist with fire suppression and search operations.
