A fire Thursday night consumed a warehouse at the U.S. Army’s Busan Storage Center in Beomil-dong, a section of Busan city in southeastern South Korea, according to local news reports and U.S. Army Garrison Daegu.

The fire of unknown origin was reported at 6:35 p.m. at a warehouse in the center, according to email Thursday night from Daegu garrison spokesman Phil Molter. The garrison called on mutual aid agreements with the Busan Fire Department to fight the blaze, he said.

By 8 p.m. authorities had mobilized as many as 11 fire stations to respond, according to YTN broadcast news. No injuries were reported as of 10 p.m.

The empty warehouse was under renovation and unoccupied when the fire broke out, Molter said.

The U.S. Army established the site as a supply depot at the start of the Korean War in 1950.

Busan, South Korea’s second largest city, is roughly 200 miles southeast of Seoul. The coastal city includes South Korea’s largest port.
