Charlotte fire crews responded to a two-alarm warehouse fire Saturday in north Charlotte. It happened around 1 p.m. on Century Place. The fire was caused by an electrical issue with a light fixture, fire officials said.

The battalion chief said crews initially responded to a water overflow call but saw the smoke when they got on scene. No one was inside the building at the time of the fire and no injuries were reported.  According to the battalion chief, the fire was mostly extinguished by the building’s sprinkler system.

  1. I am trying to find a fire system that will protect my home better. I hadn’t even thought about using a sprinkler system, as you mostly just see those in larger buildings. Hopefully I can find a way to put some of these in my home in case of any electrical issues like the one in this example!
