\nForcing entry into the secured structure with hand and power tools, firefighters made an aggressive and well-coordinated assault on the fire, extending handlines to the core of the furniture manufacturing firm, as their colleagues performed strategic vertical ventilation of the arched truss roof above.<\/p>\n

Timely and effective teamwork by dozens of firefighters prevented flames from extending horizontally beyond the core of the building, sparing the bulk of the business from severe fire damage. <\/p>\n

The flames were extinguished in just 26 minutes, and no injuries were reported. <\/p>\n

Fire loss to Yesenia’s Upholstery<\/a><\/i> is still being tabulated. <\/p>\n

The cause of the blaze was determined to be electrical in nature.<\/p>\n
