NEW YORK - Emergency crews extinguished a small fire on the property of former president Bill Clinton and his wife Hillary in Chappaqua, New York on Wednesday, officials said.
"A small fire broke out in the @SecretService facility today on Clinton property, in a building not connected to their home," Hillary Clinton's spokesman Nick Merrill said on Twitter.
"The Clintons were not home. All is ok!"
A police spokesman in New Castle, a town near Chappaqua, told AFP that the call came in just before 3:00 pm (1951 GMT), the fire was put out, and there were no injuries.

"There's still an on-scene investigation," the police spokesman said.
The cause of the fire was not known.
The Clintons bought the 5-bedroom house in 1999 when Hillary Clinton decided to run for a US Senate seat in New York, which she won in 2000.
