“When they do roofing like that, they use torches to heat it and possibly that’s how it got started,” David Kinvig, acting deputy fire chief. “No injuries or anything. It only took ten minutes to put the tar out.”
Traffic was diverted from the area, but firefighters had the situation under control quickly.
