Baseball stadium fire contained by fire sprinkler system (York, PA)
An early morning fire at a concession stand in Santander Stadium was extinguished Saturday with little damage done, said York City Fire Department Chief David Michaels. A compressor in the cooling unit of the first-base-side concession stand overheated and caught fire around 6 a.m., Michaels said. He said the fire was contained by the park’s sprinkler system. The damage was minimal enough that planned events at Santander Stadium were able to go on as normal on Saturday, he said.
“If not for the sprinkler, it would have been a totally different outcome,” Michaels said. “It could have been a significant fire.”

Sprinklers limit damage in commercial building fire (South Bend, IN)
Fire crews were dispatched to a fire at 1:30 a.m. Monday at the South Bend/St. Joseph Building Department. The building’s fire sprinkler was operating when they arrived, preventing a large amount of damage.
“The sprinkler head was triggered by the fire in that office,” said Captain Christian Rose of the South Bend Fire Department. “And there was a broken window, so we’re unsure how that happened. So we called the fire investigators out to see whether or not arson was involved, or something else.”
The office was open for business on Monday, and there were no injuries reported.
