(KLZA)-- The Falls City Volunteer Department responded to a report of a building on fire in Falls City Thursday afternoon at approximately 2:30.
Department Public Information Officer Jon McQueen reported the call was to 420, East 14th Street, a building owned by Eickhoff Storage & Properties.
Upon arrival, fire fighters found a furniture moving blanket outside the east side of the building that had been completely burned. The blanket did scorch the metal building and due to radiant heat, the inside insulation which was blackened was pulled away from the wall and removed.
A booster tank was used to douse any remains.
Fire fighters remained on the scene for about 30 minutes.
