Pier fire update: Crews worked through the night and will continue to work today. The unstable restaurant structure means crews can’t attack the fire from inside, so the fight will continue from the exterior.

Still working the pier fire. Crews will remain working through the night to ensure it remains confined to the end of the pier.

We have made good progress on the pier fire. We will be working into the dark to complete extinguishment and to ensure that the fire does not rekindle. The fire has been contained to the end of the pier.
