Arson investigators were out Wednesday at the scene of Tuesday’s storage facility fire in Marion. It happened midday off Highway 2.
The owner of Marion Security Storage, Sherry Whirry, confirmed all 30 storage units were lost in the fire.
“I thought it was a joke when the manager called to tell me the units were on fire,” said Whirry, who is based in Kalispell.
Propane and a lot of ammunition were found in one of the units, according the Marion Fire Department.
Jes Romero, a customer of the storage facility, says he lost everything for a new house he was planning to build in the area.
“I lost all my stuff, I lost really nice furniture, I lost paintings, things that I bought in Iraq, I lost military appreciation plaques that were given to me -- those are the things I can't get back,” he said.
