Cause of fire at Aces Casino ruled accidental

 

Fire investigators say a malfunctioning electrical unit that controlled the decorative exterior lighting caused the fire at Aces Casino on Saturday evening.

 

The Spokane Fire Department responded to 6301 N. Division St. at approximately on 9:15 p.m. to investigate a report of smoke coming from the roof of the business.

 

First arriving crews found a small amount of smoke coming from the peak of the roof on the south side of the building. The building was evacuated while the source of the smoke was located. Firefighters quickly extinguished the fire confining it to the exterior of the building.

 

There were no reported injuries to civilians or firefighters.
