PHOENIX — A Glendale house went up in flames early Tuesday morning, with firefighters battling through rooms filled with hoarded goods as well as flames.

This makes the second such fire in the West Valley city in two days.

Neighbors called emergency crews to 62nd and Missouri avenues around 4 a.m. The fire had already spread to the attic when crews arrived. There were no injuries but the house couldn’t be saved.

Monday, a fire at 47th and Missouri avenues destroyed a home that was also packed full of collected materials.
