There were approximately 65 fire response vehicles on scene. The farthest traveled from Darke County.

The structure sustained significant damage, but is salvageable because of crews’ efforts to keep the fire contained to the storage area of the building.

“When you burn pallets you know, they burn quick, they burn hot,” Clark said. “That’s what we were dealing with here was a large amount a lot of pallets inside of the structure … the fire had a head start on us.”

State fire marshals are on scene working to determine the cause of the fire and where it started — an endeavor that could take days or weeks.

UPDATE @ 7:24 a.m.:

Multiple crews spent several hours working to contain the blaze at the BDL Supply pallet factory.

There is currently no word on injuries or cause of a fire.
