PORTLAND — Firefighters Saturday morning were still spraying down the smoldering wreckage of a three-alarm fire that erupted Friday night on Custom House Wharf and left four businesses damaged or destroyed.
PORTLAND, Maine (WGME) — It was a long night for Portland firefighters.
Deputy Fire Chief Jon Hendricks says a fire broke out around 5:30 on Friday night.
The heavy flames were coming from a warehouse building off Custom House Wharf.
Hendricks says frozen fire hydrants and narrow roads posed stiff challenges to combat the flames.
Two firefighters were hurt in the process, but they were not hospitalized.
"The first in companies did a great job, and they made a very aggressive attack to keep it from spreading down the rest of the wharf," Hendricks said.
The fire tore through a boat repair shop. Hendricks says the building is a total loss.
