CHICAGO (WLS) -- At least two people were forced from their home into the cold, snowy night Saturday because of a house fire on the city's West Side.

People were able to escape the fire, which broke out around 7 p.m. in the back of the two-story building near Gladys and Cicero in the South Austin neighborhood.

No one was injured.

The fire has since been put out and the cause is under investigation.
