Newton warehouse catches fire

SURREY - Surrey RCMP are investigating if a recent break-in at a Newton warehouse is connected to a threealarm fire early Monday morning at 7550 132nd St.

 

Police said the break-in happened a couple days earlier. Thirty-two firefighters fought the blaze, which was contained at press time but continued to burn.

 

As thick black smoke filled the sky, morning commuters were forced to find another way to work as police shut down a few blocks of 132nd Avenue while firefighters battled the blaze. No injuries had been reported at press time.
