Demolition of a vacant former restaurant on Greenvill Ave. in Dallas has stopped after investigators found a body inside the burned building.

Firefighters said they were aware homeless people often stayed in the building. Crews said they would search for any possible victims inside the building while they extinguish the remaining fires.

Heavy machinery began demolishing the building around 7 a.m. Monday, but work was halted when investigators found a body in the rubble around 7:50 a.m.

The three-alarm fire in an old Uncle Julio's location caused fire crews to close the road as they battled the blaze. Northbound lanes of Greenville were reopened around 6 a.m., but southbound lanes will be shutdown for an extended period of time.

Around 11:50 p.m. Sunday night, Dallas firefighters responded to the fire in the 7500 block of Greenville Ave. Fire was visible through the roof of the vacant structure when firefighters arrived. The interior blaze was so intense that firefighters could only work defensively from the outside. Parts of the roof have already collapsed due to the intense heat.

The crews used several ladder trucks and poured thousands of gallons of water per minute onto the fire. Atmos Energy is headed to the scene to cut off the gas to the former restaurant. Once that's done, crews are planning to knock down remains and extinguish any remaining hot spots. The structure is a total loss.

Investigators are working to determine a cause.
