CHEHALIS – Firefighters were called about 6:45 p.m. yesterday to what turned out to be a small fire in downtown Morton.
Fire investigator Ted McCarty said the restaurant next door noticed some smoke from the denture clinic on the 200 block of Main Avenue.
Crews found a little fire in one of the offices, McCarty said.
“It didn’t do a lot of damage structure-wise, but there was smoke damage,” he said. “District 4 firefighters, they did a great job and kept it confined.”
The building, with apartments on the upper level, was built in the 1920s, according to McCarty.
His investigation is ongoing, but the fire didn’t appear suspicious, he said.
