<div>I had just left the FAO and was at Irving Park rd...hadda turn around and got back in pretty quick, but missed some heavy fire blowing out the overhead doors and a collapse. This was a double truss building
Most of the occupancy was a car detailer with several autos inside, the other part was some kinda hair care place. Supposedly spilled gasoline and a dropped trouble light caused this fast moving fire. When I arrived outside operations were in full swing, TL5 and Squad 1 working and most of the back wall had already collapsed giving credence to the adage of early and sudden failures of bow string struss assemblies. This happened right at sunset and was on the frontage road to the Eisenhower expressway making photography pretty challenging.</div>
More to follow....
