Sprinkler system helps suppress blaze at Salvation Army warehouse
A fire at a Salvation Army warehouse near downtown Fresno early Thursday morning burned some boxes of donated items but was largely extinguished by the building’s fire sprinkler system.
Heavy smoke, apparently from burning cardboard boxes, was reported inside the building in the fire reported around 5 a.m. at the warehouse east of Highway 41 and south of Ventura Avenue.
No other information was immediately available.
