A fire in Harrison County caused two businesses to be shut down on Monday afternoon. According to the Missouri Valley Times, the Pisgah Fire Department responded to a called to 309 First Street around 12:30pm Monday for a structure fire. A second page was issued for Mondamin and Little Sioux fire departments to assist with the blaze. Crews were able to go on both the west and east side of the building and eventually extinguish the fire. However city officials were brought in for traffic control on Highway 183 through town.

The structure had substantial damage to it and the two businesses, Chiropractic Office of E. Drew Howard and Loess Hills Massage Center, are not allowed to return to normal business until the building is deemed safe. The paper states the fire departments were on hand for two hours before returning to their stations. No injuries were reported and the cause of the fire is still under investigation.
