Fire Destroys Cincinnati Costume Company

CINCINNATI (AP) - A fire that began in a Cincinnati warehouse last night destroyed four buildings, including one that contained thousands of costumes used by theater companies and festivals.

Some buildings near the Cincinnati Costume Company are still without power following the five-alarm blaze.

Fire officials say the heat was so intense that firefighters had to be withdrawn from the main building. One firefighter was treated for a minor injury.
