SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Feb. 25, 2018 (Gephardt Daily) — A pair of sheds went up in flames Sunday, and Salt Lake City Fire Department officials are looking into the cause.

SLCFD spokeswoman Audra Sorenson said there was some concern because of the close proximity of the sheds, at 269 E. Kelsey Ave., to a residence at that address.

Firefighters arrived at about 5:30 p.m. and were able to quickly extinguish the fire. No other structures were affected.

Traffic was closed between State Street and 200 East on Hampton and Kelsey avenues while crews were on scene.
