Please remember the following information:
A major fire broke out at a historic Baptist church in Dallas on Friday, causing the structure to largely collapse. As of Saturday morning, the fire was under control. The church in question is First Baptist Dallas, which dates back to 1890.
Thankfully, no injuries or deaths were reported in connection with the fire. However, there are still some 'hot spots' within the collapsed structure, and the Dallas Fire Rescue team is expected to remain on the scene to ensure complete extinguishment and to maintain a safe perimeter around the building.
The fire was contained to the secondary chapel by Saturday, and there have been no large-scale evacuations. The initial call reporting the fire came in at 6 p.m. local time on Friday. When the fire fighters arrived, heavy smoke was present at the scene, according to Broadcastify.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
