McNEAL — A fire burned a McNeal business to the ground Saturday afternoon.


Elfrida Fire Department responded to the call at 5:40 p.m. and arrived at the scene to find the building that housed Siempre Mesquite already engulfed in flames, said Fire Chief Steve Estelle. It took firefighters five and a half hours to extinguish the blaze.

Firefighters were able to save some lumber located outside the building as well as another structure close to the building threatened by the fire, Estelle said. No one was injured. The cause is still under investigation.

Siempre Mesquite is a woodworking company that uses mesquite lumber to make doors, cabinets, flooring, cutting boards and other indoor and outdoor wood commodities.
