uniform company, franklin
Firefighters responded to a call at a uniform company in
Franklin on a Saturday morning. Fire crews made entry from
the back of the building and found a fire in the approximate
center of the warehouse section of the building. The fire
was controlled by one fire sprinkler.
Fire crews extinguished the remainder of the fire and removed
the affected storage bins that contained burned material
that appeared to be wet mop heads and other cleaning materials,
Franklin Fire Department Fire Inspector Gordon Jepsen said.
No immediate source of heat was determined.
"Had the building not been protected by fire sprinklers
and an alarm notifying us that a sprinkler activated, we
may have never known there was a fire in the building," Jepsen
said.
