BROKEN ARROW, Okla. — Around 10 to 15 employees escaped a fire at a commercial building in Broken Arrow on Dec. 13.
The Broken Arrow Fire Department said "heavy" fire conditions caused significant structural damage. An official said no one was injured.
The blaze struck the commercial building along North Redbud Avenue in Broken Arrow, which is owned by Naked Wood Works. That is southeast of the intersection of Aspen and Kenosha.
Crews were on scene for hours, with teams still putting out hotspots as late as 10:15 pm.
"The condition of the fire was heavy, which weakened the structure. We had a partial collapse at one point," said Brandon Smith, a battalion chief at the BAFD. "Then, we just had some issues with getting in."
A couple of BAFD firetrucks returned to the scene just after 5 am on Dec. 14, inspecting the damage. A captain on scene told 2 News they are still investigating what started the fire.
