Approx. 0800 hours a box alarm was struck for a building fire at 151 Airport Dr. Engine 32 arrived with smoke showing from a one story commercial structure. The fire was found in the roof below an exhaust fan with light smoke conditions in the structure. Engine 91's crew went to the roof to assist with removing and overhauling the exhaust fan. Interior crews stretched a precautionary line but controlled the fire with a dry chemical extinguisher.

Companies went back into service approx. an hour and a half later.
