No One Hurt in South Dakota Warehouse Fire

April 28, 2011

Authorities are looking into the cause of a business fire in Sioux Falls.

The blaze at a warehouse near Elston Manufacturing began about 6:30 a.m. Wednesday. Authorities say no one was hurt.

A damage estimate was not immediately available. Fire Department Battalion Chief Joe Sieverding says two semitrailers in one of the warehouse units appear to be a total loss.

Sieverding says the warehouse has four tenants. He says it didn’t have a sprinkler system, and suffered fire, heat and smoke damage.
