Firefighters say when they first arrived at the scene near 55th and Missouri avenues, there was so much smoke it was hard to distinguish which building was on fire.
Officials say just before 1:00 a.m. in an industrial area near 55th and Missouri avenues, neighbors noticed smoke coming from the roof of a business and called 911.
Firefighters tell us when they first arrived at the scene, there was so much smoke it was hard to distinguish which building was on fire."The fire was called defensive due to the amount of fire, smoke and heat. Meaning the firefighters couldn’t enter the building because it was extremely dangerous. Another challenge to this fire was access.
Along with GFD, crews from Phoenix and Peoria fire departments were able to keep the fire contained to the Curbs Plus warehouse, so it didn't spread to the offices that were attached.An investigation into how the fire started is underway.
