OKKLAHOMA CITY -- An overnight structure fire had crews from across Oklahoma City fighting a blaze near NW 7th and Virginia.

The four-alarm fire burned throughout the night at the Dan's Food Service building, 811 NW Virginia.

Fire officials said when firefighters arrived, the structural integrity of the building was already in question. The Salvation Army disaster building is next door to the building, and crews worked to make sure the fire didn't spread.

"One of the things that also really hampers our problems – been a big danger for us, is there's a power transmission line that goes right down the center of that alley," said Deputy Fire Chief Cecil Clay. "So you can imagine, we're putting thousands of gallons of water in that area, along with those energized power lines."

The cause of the blaze is under investigation.
