Fire damages Billings warehouse on Easter

Billings, Montana – Around 3 a.m. on Easter morning, flames erupted from a fire on Billings’ south side.

Videos taken by Brandy Morris, who lives in the 100 block of Orchard Lane, show flames shooting out of the roof of a warehouse to the east of her home. According to the Billings Fire Department, the flames started around the junction of Arden Avenue and Hallowell Lane. They also said that off-duty fighters had been sent to support the city’s efforts as well.

Morris couldn’t believe how large the flames had grown at certain times.

“What could have possibly been in there that was so flammable? Because I pulled that curtain back and that building, it was out the roof. Then it died down, and then it erupted again, and (the firefighters) were still trying to get back there,” she said.

There is no information on whether or not anybody was inside the warehouse, as well as on the estimated damage.
