SAN ANTONIO – A fire tore through a day care center Tuesday morning on the city's North Side.

More than 60 children and staff evacuated from Bright Kids Daycare Center in the 3900 block of Thousand Oaks. No injuries were reported.

San Antonio Fire Department spokesman Joe Arrington said that when crews arrived around 10:35 a.m., heavy smoke was billowing from the building.

"It burned very quickly. We were very fortunate that everyone got out quickly," Arrington said.

The building will more than likely be a total loss, Arrington said.

There was no word on how the fire started.

Parents can pick up their children at a sister day care center at 4230 Clear Spring.

About 25 fire units responded to the scene, Arrington said.
