Fire Guts Lumber Yard, Stock Lost in Early Morning Blaze

An early morning fire has caused major losses at a lumber yard on All Saints Road early Friday morning, destroying a large portion of the company’s stock. The blaze broke out before dawn, and by the time firefighters arrived, the flames had already spread across much of the property.
Fire crews worked to contain the fire and prevent it from reaching nearby businesses and homes. No injuries were reported, but the damage to the lumber yard’s materials is said to be significant.
Authorities have not yet determined the cause of the fire, but investigations are underway. The incident has left the business community concerned about fire safety and preparedness, especially in areas where combustible materials are stored.
