NORTH ATTLEBORO - Firefighters extinguished a small heating unit fire Wednesday at a commercial building on Route 1 where space is being renovated for a car rental agency.
David Linton reported in Thursday’s edition of The Sun Chronicle that the fire was reported at 9:20 a.m. at 110 East Washington Street, the former site of Benny’s and where Dollar General is now located.
Workers are remodeling space in the building for an Enterprise Rent-A-Car business, according to fire officials.
The fire was in a heating unit and was extinguished in about 10 minutes, Assistant Fire Chief Goerge McKinnon told the newspaper.
There were no injuries.
