Douglas fire fighters contained the flames at the Centro De Amor Y Aceptacion Ministries church Tuesday night on 5th Street between G Avenue and H Avenue.


The fire appeared to be in the attic and firefighters, who arrived on the scene at 10:10p.m., shot water through one of the attic vents.

In order to ventilate the rising heat in the attic, firefighters sawed a hole through the roof.

Firefighters controlled the fire within an hour but they remained on scene until about 1:30 a.m.

They are still investigating the origins of the fire.
