CREWS STILL BATTLING HOT SPOTS THURSDAY MORNING

(Richmond, IN)--Richmond Fire Chief Tim Brown was on the scene of the My Way Trading fire Thursday morning and provided an update on where efforts to get it out stand.  "There's a lot of hot spots and a lot of hidden fires," Brown explained.  And, there are still larger sections burning.  "We have one area where the roof pancaked down and it's burning pretty good underneath it," Brown added.  Here’s what will happen Thursday.  "We're going to bring in more excavators, assign engines to them, and start digging this thing apart aggressively so that we can get to the hot spots and get this fire extinguished," Brown said.  There is no estimated time to get the fire completely out.
