JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — A massive fire broke out at a building on the Arlington Expressway Wednesday, according to the Jacksonville Fire and Rescue Department.
The fire was in the 5800 block of the Arlington Expressway, fire rescue said. As of 6:42 p.m., fire is under control. JFRD reported the fire via Twitter at 6:14 p.m.
Fire rescue said the building was fully engulfed and "too far gone and not safe" to send firefighters inside, prompting the fire department to battle the blaze defensively. Fire rescue said it's suspicious for such a massive fire to spread so quickly, so the cause is under investigation by the state fire marshal.
