Monday, Jan. 16, 2011, where multiple alarms were sounded to fight the fire on Sunday morning. Officials say the fire was contained Sunday evening. But pockets are expected to continue burning for a couple of days. Firefighters were struggling to get enough water to the scene because a number of hydrants didn't work. There were no reports of injuries. The cause of the fire remains under investigation Monday.   (AP Photo/The Times Herald-Record, Jeff Goulding)
