## Narrative

A contractor was reteiving some drag line parts from an abandon truck shop.  One of the contrator employees was attempting to disengage a parts rack with a cutting torch.  Sparks from the torch caught the back wall on fire.  The fire quickly spread to the roof and was immediately out of control.  Local fire departments were summoned, but the building was a complete loss.
