FORT MYERS, Fla – The Lee County Sheriff’s Office and State Fire Marshal began investigating a residential fire in Fort Myers Saturday morning.

A public information officer for LCSO shared this Facebook live video from the scene on Broadway Ave. Deputies had to shut down a portion of the road, right past Unity Ave. to give fire fighters room to work. The road is no longer closed.

Fox 4 has reached out to the sheriff’s office to request additional information.
