The North Battleford Fire Department responded to the Hyundai dealership at the north end of the city Friday morning where a fire had caused extensive damage to an office near the service area.
A desktop computer is thought to be the cause of the fire.
"The fire was contained to an office," said Deputy Fire Chief Kevin Steinborn. "The remainder of the offices and the showroom sustained smoke damage."
At first, the fire was thought to be caused by some renovations going on within the dealership, but Steinborn said firefighters quickly determined a desktop computer inside an office as the cause. Firefighters managed to relocate all showroom vehicles outside to minimize any smoke damage.
The North Battleford Fire Department responded with two pumpers, one command unit, one utility vehicle and 14 firefighters. SaskEnergy and SaskPower also responded to terminate utility service to the building.
The alarm came in at 7:11 a.m. The fire department was on the scene for about two hours. RCMP, EMS and WPD Ambulance were also on the scene.
There were no injuries and no estimate yet on the amount of damage.
