I live there and i remember seeing this!

@SuperLadygagafanatic I was at the martial arts place across the street at a concert when this started. Most of the people in the video are from that concert. It's kind of funny how things escaladed. About an hour and a half before the fire broke out, the police had someone pulled over there. Thirty minutes later, the police and car that was stopped were gone but a lonely fire truck was there. Not on a call, no lights, just idling on the side of the road.

@SuperLadygagafanatic They left and about one hour later the fire had already grown out of control. This film was started about 20 minutes after that point. I would have recorded more but I forgot I had the capabilities. (Alcohol may have led to my short-term memory loss.) The fire spread very rapidly. The fire departments had no chance of saving the facility. I just wonder what reason the lonely fire truck from before had for being there. Thanks for the comment.
