Sheridan Fire-Rescue (SFR) responded to 1842 Sugarland Dr. at 09:59 Thursday (November 14th) for the report of a fire in a commercial structure.
The SFR on duty Battalion Chief arrived on scene at 10:06 finding a single story strip mall with a moderate amount of fire and smoke showing from the roof of a restaurant occupancy.
E-2’s crew arrived on scene and quickly deployed a preconnected handline to initiate fire attack starting on the roof and then transitioning inside to control the main body of fire.
Sheridan Police Department (SPD) officers assisted the fire crew with evacuating adjacent businesses, keeping bystanders out of the hazard zone, and providing traffic control.
Wyoming Regional EMS (WREMS) ambulances responded to standby for civilian and firefighter safety. Goose Valley Fire Department responded to provide additional personnel.
E-2’s crew found a majority of fire in the attic space and roof with extension of heat and smoke throughout the businesses.
The fire was brought under control and the crew transitioned to checking for extension of fire into adjacent areas of the business as well as checking the adjacent businesses.
Fire crews conducted a search of the main fire area to confirm there were no other occupants inside, finding no one.
The building was systematically ventilated and overhauled to remove all residual smoke, heat, and the potential for rekindle.
The scene was turned over to SFR Origin and Cause Investigators and is currently under investigation.
Multiple businesses remain closed until thorough cleaning can be completed.
One civilian was transported by EMS for precautionary observation and no emergency personnel were injured during this fire.
