Damages are estimated at $400,000 from a commercial structure fire last night, Monday, at 3910 Summitview Avenue.
Yakima Fire Department (YFD) crews were called to the scene at about 9:00 pm Monday and found smoke coming from the roof of a 2-story commercial building. Firefighters worked quickly to extinguish the fire and check for extension in the attic and adjacent businesses.
Heavy smoke and fire damage was limited to the second floor business and attic space.
“This fire could have been much worse if it wasn’t for early detection from the fire alarm system and the quick actions of responding crews” said YFD Captain Michael Wagner.
No injuries were reported.
The cause is under investigation.
West Valley Fire Department also responded and assisted with controlling the fire.
Firefighters were on scene for more than two hours.
