San Antonio, TX – A raging fire broke out at a convenience store on the city’s West Side, prompting a swift response from San Antonio Fire Department (SAFD) in the early hours of Thursday morning. Now, investigators are left trying to piece together the cause of the devastating incident that has resulted in an estimated damage of $50,000 to $70,000.
The fire alarm was raised just after 3 a.m. at an Exxon gas station situated at the 9700 block of Marbach Road, a short distance from South Ellison Drive and Hunt Lane. Firefighters reported seeing flames erupting through a convenience store window upon arrival at the scene. Fortunately, the fire was swiftly extinguished, avoiding further destruction and ensuring no injuries were sustained as the store was confirmed to be closed at the time of the incident.
The cause of the fire remains a mystery that SA fire investigators are fervently trying to solve. A food inspector is en route to the location to assist in the investigation process. Both the San Antonio Fire Department and the San Antonio Police Department responded to the call, committed to uncovering the exact cause of the fire that has posed significant damage to the convenience store.
