FARGO — The Fargo Fire Department has determined the cause of an Aug. 13 laboratory fire in a chemistry building at North Dakota State University.
A fire broke out in a first-floor laboratory at Ladd Hall, 1231 Albrecht Boulevard N., when a solution of chemicals in a combustible container was left unattended on a heating and stirring device, the department said in a news release.
It took firefighters about 20 minutes to extinguish the fire, which caused significant damage to the lab. The fire department reported no injuries.
A damage estimate was not available Wednesday, Aug. 19.
