Spokane Fire Department battles 3-alarm fire in downtown Spokane Washington

Here's a video clip of the 3 alarm fire in Spokane Washington it started in the basement of Dorian photography studios. One firefighter was injured in this fire at the time of posting this video it is still burning.

Dorian has been housed in the building since 1973.

Crews were concerned that the smoke may have contained chemicals from a photo studio that was located in the basement where the fire was burning.

Thick cement walls helped to contain the fire to the basement, but officials say that the area heated up like a furnace, making it impossible for firefighters to go inside to knock down the fire. Several businesses, including Churchhill restaurant, and condominiums that were undercontruction, were housed in the building.
