Crews are responding to a large fire in Chicago Heights.
Crews spent several hours on Monday fighting a massive industrial building fire in south suburban Chicago Heights.
The fire started shortly before 6 a.m. at the Morgan Li furniture factory at 1101 Washington. Fire department officials said it was extinguished around noon.The company's president described the fire damage as"massive," but said all employees are safe and accounted for, and they're lucky no one was injured.
"Morgan Li is a family-owned and run business and we consider all our employees an extension of our family," the company said in a statement."We will do everything we can to rebuild what was lost and continue to support our people and the entire Chicago Heights community. "The location of the fire is one of our five manufacturing facilities, and we will continue to support our customers throughout the other operational locations."
Watching the changes in smoke rising from what is believed to be a furniture manufacturing operation in Chicago Heights, it appears the fuels are being reduced, as they are consumed by fire. More at
