Blairsville, Ga – Union County Fire Department (UCFD) responded to an early morning fire at Spry Family Dry Cleaners on 46 Hunt Martin Street.
The call came in around 2:03 a.m. and firefighters continued to battle the blaze until 5:30 a.m. The commercial building continues to smoke and smolder, and UCFD is continually checking on it throughout today.
One unit inside the building was fully engulfed in flames and the roof had collapsed. The second unit suffered heavy fire damage.
Engine 1, Ladder 1, Engine 2, and Tanker 4 all responded to the early morning fire at Harbin Dry Cleaners.
No one was injured during the fire. UCFD is actively investigating the reason for the fire.
At this time, UCFD Fire Chief David Dyer says it’s too early to know the cause of the fire. However, it’s unlikely to be related to the Nantahala Village Apartment arson from Nov. 7. If anyone has information about the apartment arson, please contact authorities.
Members of the community have started a Go-Fund-Me to help the Spry family with repairs and rebuilding the dry cleaners.
