An enormous two-alarm fire broke out early Wednesday morning, January 10th, at a downtown San Antonio, Texas, commercial building. Several ladder trucks and dozens of firefighters responded to the call in minutes. The fire was under control within the hour, only impacting the building and vehicles in the parking lot. Cold King, a small refrigeration business operated within the building. Regrettably, the company (established in 1986) will be unable to undertake rebuilding efforts at the present time.
The building had one occupant sleeping when the fire ignited. That person was able to escape the building with no injuries. Firefighters are still investigating how the fire started as it is difficult to determine due to the building collapsing and burning to the ground.
