Firefighters responded to the strip mall on Middlebelt north of Ford Rd. after a passerby noticed the fire and stopped at the fire department to report the incident.

Crews from Garden City, Westland, Wayne, Inkster, Dearborn Heights, Dearborn, Livonia and the Wayne County Metro Airport responded due to the size and complexity of the blaze.

According to the fire department, firefighters had to take a defensive posture due to the heavy fire load and structural compromise of the rooftop.

The fire caused significant damage to the entire building and a nearby business sustained smoke damage. No injuries were reported.
