MOSES LAKE — No injuries were reported in a fire at an industrial facility on Wheeler Road in Moses Lake on Monday afternoon.

Heather Kok of the Moses Lake Fire Department said the fire was reported at 3:58 p.m. at the Two Rivers Terminal, 13583 Wheeler Road NE. As a precaution the Moses Lake Fire Department issued a shelter-in-place order for people living in the vicinity, she said.

The fire was extinguished by about 4:45 p.m. 

“We had the entire crew on scene,” she said. 

The response included 13 firefighters, three chief officers, a ladder truck, a structure engine and two medic units. The EMS units were there for extra manpower, she said.

The fire was caused by work going on in the building, she said.
