VIDEOS: Tulsa Fire Department responded to a commercial fire that caused minor material explosions Thursday morning. Fire officials said it started at a commercial storage unit around 3 a.m. near W 26th St. The majority of the fire was on the outside of the structure; however, some of the fire made its way inside, where hazardous materials were stored. Minor explosions were caused by items like paint cans, petroleum products, and oils, firefighters said. One person was evaluated for possible smoke inhalation. No other injuries were reported. The wind blew any rising smoke away so there wasn't a risk to air quality, according to fire officials, and there was no risk to the public. Multiple fire departments responded to the scene, along with a hazmat crew and police. Officials are still investigating what caused the fire.
