MARYVILLE, Ill. – An auto shop in Maryville went up in flames Thursday afternoon.
The fire started at Andy's Auto Body on Schiber Court around 1:00 p.m. Firefighters say a car was coming out of the paint room and a couple of sparks flew, which started the blaze.
At least five different fire departments responded to the call. Firefighters said they had difficulties because some materials inside the building caused explosions and the fire got extremely hot because the building was made out of sheet metal.
Four cars were damaged in the fire, including a 1940s Ford that was being restored.
The building has been deemed a total loss.
No one was injured in the fire.
