Narrative:
An employee at Victoria’s Secret, located in East Towne Mall, called 911 when a light fixture in the fitting room started on fire.
Engine 8, Ladder 8, and other MFD units arrived at the mall just four minutes after receiving the call. Though there were visible flames at the time of the call, the fire was out by the time firefighters entered the changing room.
Engine 8 shut down the room's electrical power, and the Victoria’s Secret store manager made arrangements to have an electrician perform the necessary repairs. Damage was isolated to the light fixture.
