All off-duty Statesville firefighters were ordered to report for duty to help contain the fire. Officials say no one was hurt, and no one was inside the buildings at the time of the fire. Firefighters were able to get the fire under control by 5:30 a.m. A witness said up to six buildings were damaged by the fire.
