Early this morning around 3:00 AM, Hemby Bridge, Bakers, Monroe, and Stallings Fire Departments were dispatched to a report of smoke inside a business as employees were closing for the night. Upon arrival, crews determined the smoke was originating from a neighboring unit.
Firefighters quickly located and extinguished the fire, limiting damage to the affected area and preventing further extension to surrounding businesses.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation by the Union County Fire Marshal’s Office.
We appreciate the rapid response and teamwork of all agencies involved.
