Witnesses who spotted smoke coming from a strip of businesses on Gunbarrel
Road and called 911 allowed for a quick response by the CFD and a quick
knockdown on a commercial structure fire. At 4:58 PM on 4/10/25, Blue Shift
companies were called to 2260 Gunbarrel Road on reports of black smoke
coming from business space under renovation next to Jersey’s Mike. This is
in the same parking lot as Best Buy and Petco. Firefighters found flames
coming from the roof on arrival from a burning HVAC unit. They forced entry
through the front door to attack the fire and an aerial was also used to
aid in extinguishment. By 5:17 PM, the fire was under control. There were
no injuries. CPD and HCEMS were also on the scene. Our Tri-State Mutual Aid
partners provided coverage at our fire halls. Engine 8, Ladder 7, Engine
21, Ladder 13, Engine 6, Squad 13, Squad 7, Battalion 3 and Battalion 2
were on the call.
