Florida firefighters battled a massive house fire on July 30 and are saying the likely cause is arson.

The fire broke out late at night on July 30 at a home in Lake County, Florida, and the residents were able to exit the building safely, according to FOX 35.

When firefighters arrived on the scene, flames can be seen throughout the roof of the home.

Officials are suspecting that an act of arson caused the fire.
