According to Doolan, the building "was a complete loss" but firefighters on scene worked toward ensuring the blaze didn't spread.

He said the warehouse was vacant at the time of the fire and was unsure if it was an active business anymore.

No injuries were reported but the cause of the fire was still under investigation as of Sunday.
