Cause of Clarkesville Fire Still Undetermined

In Habersham County, inspectors from the State Fire Marshall’s office will be in Clarkesville today to try and determine the cause of a fire that destroyed part of a downtown shopping complex.

It happened just before midnight Saturday night at the Walls Stripmall on Washington St, according to fire officials.

When firefighters arrived, they found one end of the complex engulfed in flames.

That storefront housed The Missing Piece.

Officials said high winds hampered efforts to put the blaze out quickly, but they were able to keep the fire from spreading to other stores in the strip mall.

No one was hurt in the fire.
