Captain John Maddox with Salt Lake City Fire said crews found smoke coming out of the building upon arrival. Once inside, they found one the vehicles parked in a bay had caught fire. “Due to the size of the business and the nature of the possible equipment and takes involved and possible hazmat, we automatically went up to a second-alarm,” said Maddox.
Fortunately, the quick response from firefighters and the sprinkler system working inside the building, the fire was doused before it could spread to other vehicles or cause a hazmat situation. Captain Maddox said only security personnel were on site at the time of the fire and there were no injuries from the fire.
