No one was injured in a three-alarm fire that consumed the Alpha Delta Gamma fraternity house early Wednesday morning.

Firefighters were called at 5:30 a.m. to the house at 7130 Freret St. and arrived within five minutes. By 5:47, 68 firefighters were on the scene.

Because of dangers posed by the fire, electricity to the main campus was disconnected intermittently during the course of several hours, according to Residential Life and Physical Plant staff.

The Louisiana Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms and the New Orleans Fire Department are investigating the cause of the blaze.

According to a written statement from ADG President Taylor Miller, music performance senior, the fraternity doesn’t know what happened.

“As of right now, there have been many speculations as to what caused the fire, but nothing is official,” he wrote.

Miller said no one was living in the house; Entergy had not restored power or gas.

He said that though no members were living in the house, several had moved possessions into the house.

Miller added that while the fraternity is “devastated,” they anticipate a successful semester.

“We will be able to put this behind us, move on, and become better leaders,” he wrote. He asserted that rumors of the house being condemned are false, saying that the house passed an inspection “before the new year.”

The ADG Web site states that the brothers moved into the house in 1976 after a fire destroyed their previous house, located on Kenmore Ave.

The fraternity has been active on Loyola’s campus for more than 80 years.
