GRAND JUNCTION, Colo.- An early morning fire turned into a hazmat situation after officials found chemical materials involved in the blaze.

Just before 6 a.m. Friday, the Grand Junction Fire Department responded to a fire at Plating Specialties located at 574 25 Road.

The damage to building is significant. Due to the danger involving hazardous chemicals inside the building, officials closed down part of 25 Road from Inland to Industrial avenues. It has since been reopened.

There were no evacuations and fire officials say no one was injured in the fire.

The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
