The Harford Fire & Rescue Department said a 911 caller reported the fire was inside next to the printing presses. The first crew went in with a hose, and the next crew got a ladder up in case ventilation was needed.
The building's sprinkler system activated and stopped the fire from spreading, which allowed firefighters to extinguish it. The area was then overhauled to make sure the fire was out.

Milwaukee firefighters responded to a two-alarm fire at a U-Haul facility near 1st and Lapham on Monday night, April 6, the same complex that burned in January, with no injuries reported.
No fire or EMS personnel were injured. No employees were in the building at the time of the fire, because it was shut down for the Easter holiday.
An investigation into the cause of the fire remains ongoing. HFRD estimates the total loss at near $1 million, though an official determination has not been released.
The Washington County Sheriff's Office, Hartford Police Department and other agencies provided assistance.
