SALT LAKE CITY — A 3-alarm fire in a vacant downtown Salt Lake City building prompted a large response near 356 West and 700 South late Sunday.
Officials asked the public to avoid the area near The Hendrey apartment building, although the building itself was not on fire. Four apartments near the fire were evacuated, but it's not known how many people are included under those orders.
The vacant building was later demolished as it determined to be unsafe for firefighters to operate inside.
