MARYSVILLE, Calif. — Fire crews are battling a large structure fire in Marysville, according to Marysville Fire Department.
The fire started at the unoccupied Glacier Ice Company building on 9th and B streets Friday around 2 p.m. The cause of the fire is currently unknown.
The fire has caused 9th Street east of B Street, and Chestnut Street south of the building to close completely. The road closings are expected to continue into Saturday. Officials are urging drivers to avoid the area.
The 40,000 square foot building is a "complete loss," according to officials.
Marysville firefighters are now accompanied by Loma Rica Cal Fire Station 61 and Butte County Fire Department firefighters to put the fire out.
The fire knocked power out to over a thousand people in the area as temperatures reached triple digits. A cooling center was opened at the New Beginnings Wesleyan Church at 616 C St for those who need relief from the heat.
No injuries have been reported.
