NANTUCKET – A large fire broke out late Friday night in Nantucket. A warehouse-type building was fully involved when crews arrived. At the height of the blaze, firefighters were checking the surrounding area, concerned flying embers could start additional fires as they worked with limited water supplies. Some neighbors were reportedly hosing down their houses to make sure they didn’t catch fire as well. Fire crews were forced to stay back some distance because of collapse concerns. No injuries were reported. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
