NEWBERG, Ore. -- An airplane hangar in Newberg caught fire Saturday morning and was first reported by a paper delivery person.
At about 5:30 a.m., the delivery person saw smoke coming from the hangar at 406 Airpark Way, according to Battalion Chief Gert Zoutendijk of the Newberg Fire Department.
About 35 firefighters from the Newberg, Dundee, St. Paul and McMinnville fire departments were able to get the fire under control after about 40 minutes, and prevent the fire from spreading to adjacent hangers, Zoutendijk said.
The two-alarm fire was put out completely by 9:30 a.m.
None of the hangars had any airplanes. The hangars are commonly used for storage, Zoutendijk said.
The Yamhill County Fire Department is investigating the cause of the fire and determining damage estimates.
