PITTSBURGH (Newsradio 1020 KDKA) - Crews continue to fight a fire at a large storage building on the 400 block of Butler Street in Etna on Wednesday.

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports that two firefighters were taken to the hospital with minor injuries from the blaze at STORExpress warehouse.


The warehouse is home to several businesses and also is a storage location for expensive cars and boats.

A woman, speaking to Marty Griffin and Wendy Bell, said there was so much smoke that it looked like the town of Etna was on fire.

Nearby buildings have been evacuated as a precaution. No word yet on what caused the fire.

KDKA Radio's Scott Stiller shared photos of the fire from the PennDOT camera on Route 28 in Etna:
