Dallas Flooring Warehouse Burns

Dallas, TX, Jan. 5, 2010--A Monday morning fire at Brothers Floor Covering  carpet warehouse was contained by firefighters.

The fire was reported shortly before 5 a.m.

Since they knew it contained carpeting, tile, linoleum and other flooring products, they were "well aware of how fast the fire could get out of control," so they began to aggressively fight it, Jason Evans said in a news release.

Firefighters, however, were not sure how long the building had been burning and they were concerned the roof would collapse.

No one was hurt and the fire was put out shortly before 6 a.m., Evans said.

The cause of the fire was still under investigation Monday, he added.
