Feb 11, 2010Firefighters from multiple jurisdictions Thursday were battling an early morning blaze in a century-old building in downtown Fairburn.
The fire broke out around 1 a.m. in the building on Broad Street near West Campbellton Street.
No injuries have been reported.
WSB-TV reported that an antique mall, a hair salon and a pizza restaurant were among about 10 businesses inside the building, which was built in the early 1900s.
Roosevelt Highway, which runs through the heart of the south Fulton County town, was shut down during Thursday's morning commute, and power was cut to much of the downtown area of Fairburn.
