Additional alarm fire damages cabinet manufacturer in suburban Chicago

CHICAGO (CBS) — An additional alarm fire caused significant damage Thursday morning at a custom cabinet manufacturer in southwest suburban New Lenox.

The fire started just before 10:30 a.m. at Tri-Star Cabinets, in the 1000 block of South Cedar Road in New Lenox.

The New Lenox Fire Protection District said firefighters arrived to see heavy smoke and flames coming from the building. The fire was later upgraded to a 3-alarm fire, bringing additional crews from the area.

All employees were safely evacuated and no injuries were reported.

At 1:00 PM the fire was still raging and it appeared that much of the facility had collapsed. The fire brigade is expected to remain on site for some time on Thursday afternoon.
