Fire At Lewiston High School

LEWISTON (NEWS CENTER) -- A fire broke out at Lewiston High School Tuesday night, damaging a section of the building.

It started just after 7 o'clock. When fire crews arrived on the scene, smoke and flames were coming from the vocational wing.

The sprinkler system had been activated, which helped in containing the fire that started in the dust collection system of the woodworking shop.

There was smoke and water damage to adjoining classrooms in that wing, but flames were confined to the vocational section.

There were adult education classes taking place at the time the flames broke out, but everyone was evacuated safely.

Classes will resume as normal on Wednesday.
