BROWNSBURG — A warehouse under construction in Brownsburg caught fire Friday afternoon, the fire territory said.
Brownsburg Fire Territory responded to the fire around 12:45 p.m. in the area of Ronald Reagan Parkway and Connector Road.
Danny Brock, public information officer for the Brownsburg Fire Territory, said there is only a frame, and construction materials and equipment inside are on fire.
It's unknown at this time if anyone has been injured.
