Hammond Firefighters Battle Early Morning Blaze

Shortly after 4am Tuesday morning Hammond Fire Department was dispatched to the area of 165th & Osborn Ave for a structure fire.

A few homes adjacent to the business had minor damage from siding melted from the intense heat.

Area residents awoke to heavy black smoke and flames that could be seen for miles. The cause of the fire is under investigation and there was no reported injuries according to Hammond Fire Chief Jeff Smith.
