Chief Charles Hood said the mixed-use commercial structure's tile roof made it challenging for firefighters to get the fire out. He said the tiles are heavy and are covering the floor.

There were no injuries reported, Chief Hood said. He said firefighters knocked it out quicker than they anticipated.

Someone reported a loud bang in one of the apartments at the complex. Chief Hood said they are investigating that as well.
