Ogden • A large fire erupted in a building under construction Saturday afternoon in Ogden.
FOX 13 News began receiving tips about the blaze shortly before 5 p.m.
Witnesses said the fire was located near 22nd Street and Lincoln Avenue, possibly an apartment building that was under construction. Some added that it was near DaVinci Academy of Science and the Arts, a K-12 charter school.
Massive plumes of black smoke poured out of the structure. By around 5:20 p.m., the smoke was less extreme but still visible from far away.
On Saturday evening, Ogden City posted on X, formerly Twitter, that the blaze “has been contained to the immediate area,” and crews were assessing the damage in that block.
