ST. LOUIS — A fire caused a partial collapse at a Family Dollar store in St. Louis Wednesday afternoon.
St. Louis Fire Department labeled the fire "suspicious." No one was injured.
STLFD's Bomb and Arson Squad are investigating the fire.
Firefighters said the amount of inventory inside and throughout the building made the fire difficult to put out.
The fire was reported at 4:05 p.m.
The building partially collapsed during the fire. Fire crews were outside the building when the collapse happened.
The fire was a second alarm blaze.
The store is at 4344 Dr. Martin Luther King Drive in the Vandeventer neighborhood.
Video recorded by the St. Louis Fire Department showed gray smoke pouring from the roof of the building. A ladder truck was spraying water into the building from a high angle.
