Five employees were inside a Massillon Wendy's when a fire broke out in the restaurant Sunday.

According to fire officials, everyone was able to make it out unharmed.

Firefighters responded to the location on Lincoln Way East around 9:45 a.m.

When crews got there, smoke was billowing from the entire building. Heavy flames and smoke caused the roof to collapse, forcing firefighter to use a "defensive" attack. 

The fire was put out by 1:45 p.m. Firefighters remained on scene to put out hot spots.

No injuries were reported.

Jaskon, Perry Township, Erie Valley and Lance Township firefighters assisted Massillon with extinguishing the fire.
