KCFD Battalion 4 arrived on scene and reported a warehouse, approximately 30,000 square feet in size, fully involved in fire. Firefighters quickly worked to isolate the structure, utilizing large hose lines and an aerial stream from a ladder truck to protect nearby buildings and prevent fire spread.
