PORTLAND, Ore --A fast moving fire threatened to move to a commerical building at 99th and E Burnside Tuesday night.

First alarm came in around 9:40pm and was followed a short time later by a second alarm.

The first started in a shed on the property and was moving quickly toward a commerical builidng, said a Portland Fire Bureau spokesman.

Employees at that business say flames were shooting 20 feet in the air as they left the building.

Firefighters were able to get water on the blaze, going to the roof of a nearby building to put the fire out.

No word on the cause of the fire. No injuries have been reported. The fire was alongside the MAX tracks but trains kept running.
