Firefighters are supporting that demolition crew, which is removing debris, twisted metal, and roof decking. Firefighters will then attempt to reach and extinguish deep-seated fire.On Sunday, the fire chief revealed the first firefighters who went into the building Thursday morning were blown off their feet when the building started to collapse around them.
We are working to learn what type of documents were stored in the building. Chief Gabrenya said it is unclear if any paperwork can be saved. Investigators are talking with a company called Access that owns the warehouse to try to figure out a cause.
