Episode Details

A massive fire erupted at Portland’s historic Centennial Mills warehouse, forcing nearly 100 firefighters to battle flames as the building’s floors collapsed and posed a collapse risk. Officials used drones to monitor a dangerous rooftop water tower, fearing it could roll off if the structure fell. The site, long occupied by squatters and plagued by prior fires, is slated for redevelopment into a public river connection. The blaze forced Amtrak to suspend service between Portland and Seattle until August 7, with buses replacing trains. Police are investigating the fire’s origin and urge anyone with video or photos from 4 p.m. Sunday to come forward.
