Re: BREAKING NEWS - Grand Casino Hinckley, MN

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – Fire engulfed half of a warehouse near a Hinckley casino Sunday evening, firefighters said.

The fire started around 7:30 p.m. in a 100-foot by 400-foot warehouse located on the property of Hinckley’s Grand Casino, according to Hinckley firefighter Lance Hagman.

The casino proper, which is still operating business-as-usual, is not in danger of catching fire, but it does own the warehouse, according to casino spokesperson Sara Barten.

By 8 p.m., fire engulfed 50 percent of the warehouse, which Barten said is used as a maintenance and storage facility. According to firefighters, the building held lawnmowers, paint and gasoline.

Firefighters said the building is a total loss. Nothing yet has been said on what started it.

Crews from Hinckley, Sandstone and Pine City responded to the scene.
