Whole Foods fire
Dallas Fire-rescue received a call this afternoon at 3:23 that the Whole Foods Market under construction in the neighborhood had caught fire.
Jason Evans, spokesman for the fire department, said the incident was declared "tapped out" at 3:36. Although he had few details, a passerby likely saw smoke from a wielder's torch or some smoldering debris on the roof and called the department, he said.
