Springs firefighters are investigating the cause of a structure fire that began Friday morning in an office building on the southwest corner of North Academy Blvd. and Parkmoor Village Drive.

The fire was a two alarm fire and more than 30 firefighters and 8 trucks
responded. Officials on scene say the fire was not very large, but they needed the extra people to help break through doors.

The fire was found to be in an electrical closet in the building, but investigators haven't been able to determine if the fire was an electrical fire.

The fire was fully contained around 5:45 Friday morning and an investigation continues into what started the fire.
