    Oh, no! This is so upsetting. I'm especially worried about DeLeo's Deli. I hope there won't be too much damage to the properties in the area and I'm praying no one will be injured.

    Yeah, my first thoughts were of Tom also. I trust the EPFD will knock it down quick!

    I just had a good look at it and it looks like it is only the Park Mall that is on fire. It looks like the fire crews are doing a good job and keeping it pretty well contained. The businesses on either side of it are still intact and not showing major burn damage. I'll get a few new pictures up in a few minutes.

    CBS news is also reporting firefighters are drawing water from the river there too.

    Sure hope the damage isn't too bad. Some of those buildings were built in the 1920's.

    Oh, no! Kuddos to the fire department(s) - great folks doing amazing jobs. It does look like DeLeo's (also my first thought!) is ok. What a terrible morning for EP.

    Link to Channel 7's coverage.

    The video on the Channel 9 link Aaron posted said some local guy who has antique firetrucks had even brought one of his ladder trucks in and was using it to pump water.

    I've gotta force myself to get out and get a fuel pump and get it replaced. Keep me updated everyone.
