Just before 7 p.m. flames broke out at Great Western Inn along Loop 820 near Eastland just west of Lake Arlington. Fire crews pulled into the parking lot and saw the fire had quite a head start.

The motel has a one-story building and a two-story. The fire was through the roof of the one-story portion but firefighters were able to get inside and attack the flames which were already in the attic and moving fast. The fire was knocked down in about an hour.

They're still looking for the cause.
