The Chatham-Kent fire department is investigating a factory fire in Wallaceburg that caused about $500,000 worth of damage.
Assistant Fire Chief Bob Davidson says the structural fire took place on Friday around 7:08pm at the former H&B hockey stick factory. The building is located at 21 Arnold St. in Wallaceburg.
Three stations along with volunteer firefighters were called to the scene to help "execute a defensive strategy", and extinguish the fire.
Davidson says an industrial building and house at the back were damaged in the fire.
He estimates damages are worth $500,000. About $100,000 worth of property was saved.
Fire officials say no has been injured in the blaze.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
Arnold St. has since been reopened to traffic.
