Firefighters work to combat large warehouse fire in Calhoun
In Calhoun County, fire officials are working to put out a major industrial fire. Authorities said this incident is off Highway 41 South near the Calhoun airport.
CALHOUN, Ga. - Firefighters in Calhoun spent the evening on Wednesday battling an industrial fire at a warehouse adjacent to the airport.
U.S. 41 adjacent to the Tom B. David Airport was shut down for several hours to allow fire crews to work the blaze.
The crews were pulled back over fears the blaze had reached large propane tanks inside. The immediate areawas also evacuated due to the possibility of an explosion.
SKYFOX 5 flew over the building around 4:30 p.m. and saw firefighters attacking the blaze using ladder trucks. Black smoke could be seen billowing out of the warehouse for miles.
The business is reported a recycling facility for rubber.
