Staff Reports SB Sun 082806
A jewelry pawn shop was damaged by smoke and a firefighter was treated for heat exhaustion after a fire broke out in the Rialto Jewelry and Loan Store about 9:30 a.m. Sunday.
Firefighters were called to the store on the 800 block of East Foothill Boulevard. When crews arrived, they found smoke emanating from the store, which was located in a strip complex.
Crews attacked the blaze from the rear of the store and kept it confined to the rear storage area, according to a Rialto Fire Department news release. No employees were in the store at the time of the fire, officials said.
One firefighter, who was not immediately identified, was treated by Rialto paramedics for heat exhaustion and taken to a hospital where he was released Sunday night, said department spokesman Brian Park.
Rialto Fire's investigation unit was still trying to determine the cause of the blaze, Park said Sunday.
