A fire early Friday destroyed a Southern California distribution facility that was used to ship items to Amazon customers but authorities said employees got out and there were no reports of injuries.
A half-dozen fire departments were unable to stop flames from destroying the sprawling structure in Redlands, about 60 miles (96 kilometers) east of Los Angeles. The nearby 10 Freeway was shut down in both directions for several hours as flames shot high into the air.
The facility operated by the global logistics and supply chain company Kuehne & Nagel was dedicated to servicing Amazon. Business and customer orders will be fulfilled from other sites, spokesman Dominique Nadelhofer said in an email.
