Laundry room fire at large production facility contained by sprinkler system (St. Cloud, MN)

About 10 bags of dirty laundry caught fire in a laundry room and set off the building’s sprinkler system, according to a St. Cloud Fire Department report.  The sprinkler system doused a large portion of the fire and crews from both the St. Cloud Fire Department and Waite Park Fire Department extinguished remnants of the fire while taking care of the remaining debris. No one was hurt or injured.  “It was a sprinkler-controlled fire,” St. Cloud Battalion Chief Leon Faust, said.
