A store in Raleigh, North Carolina, suffered severe damage in a fire, with no casualties reported.

According to a WNCN report on January 6th, a store in Raleigh, North Carolina, suffered severe damage in a fire.

According to Captain Preston Gaster of the Rolesville Fire Department, a fire broke out at 9101 Leesville Road, near Fairbanks Drive, before 12:30 p.m. this afternoon. Around 45 firefighters and two firetrucks fought the blaze for approximately 20 minutes until it was brought under control.

Gaste emphasized that the fire originated in a room inside a tobacco shop, and also highlighted the uncertainty surrounding the possibility of the shop reopening after such significant damage.
