Crews battle fire at Columbus Family Dental Center
PHOTOS: A dental office sustained significant damage after a fire broke out early Tuesday morning in Columbus. According to the Columbus Fire Department, crews were called to Columbus Family Dental Center, 901 3rd St., around 3:50 a.m. Firefighters and police officers arrived at the location to find flames shooting from the roof of the business. Fire crews went inside, but the flames were too intense, forcing them to withdraw from the business. As the fire gained traction in the attic area, firefighters turned to aerial trucks. The elevated water streams were used for about an hour before the fire was under control. Crews continued to work on hot spots around the exterior. The business, which had operated at the location for about 20 years, sustained extensive damage, with much of the roof destroyed.
