NOW: Paint booth catches fire at Adorn on Hively Avenue

ELKHART, Ind. -- Elkhart firefighters responded to a fire at Adorn in the 1800 block of W. Hively Avenue Wednesday morning.

The fire started around 10:30 a.m. and was extinguished at 11:49 a.m.

Fire officials say the fire started in a vent above the paint booth and was contained to the vent and paint booth.

They had difficulty extinguishing the fire inside the ventilation duct, so firefighters cut a hole in the roof to release the smoke inside the building.

The fire caused $125,000 damage to the building.
