SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, July 3, 2020 (Gephardt Daily) — Fire crews responded to a two-alarm blaze in the area of 200 E. South Temple on Friday night and pulled out all stops in working to get the fire under control.
Traffic to the area was blocked from all directions as crews battled the blaze at a 3-story wooden home that also was threatening an adjacent Big-O Tire store.
