Old Flower Shop Catches Fire

An old flower shop caught fire last night in Streator.

Firefighters got a 911 call just after nine last night about an empty building at 314 West Bridge Street catching fire. The fire was out in about an hour and no major structural damage was done. There was some smoke and water damage.

The owner of the building is Bruce Goodman. He was apparently turning it into rental space.

Fire officials think the cause was electrical.
