Fire Damages Tupelo Business

TUPELO, Miss. (WCBI) – Firefighters are investigating a blaze that damaged a Tupelo business.

They responded to the House of Carpet store on East Main Street shortly after midnight.

Firefighters say they were able to get the fire under control in two hours.

Tupelo Battalion Chief Scott Morgan tells WCBI the warehouse is a total loss, and the display room with all the carpets has a lot of smoke and water damage.

Morgan says they still don’t know what caused the blaze, but it doesn’t appear to be suspicious.
