BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - A fire on the west side of Buffalo has gone to a three alarm.

Firefighters had to call in extra help Monday afternoon with the fire that broke out Monday morning in a warehouse for Leisure Living Pool Supplies.

Police are advising residents on Niagara Street to keep windows closed because they don't know what kind of particles are in the air.

That is per orders of the Buffalo Fire Department.

It's not clear at this time why the fire flared up again.

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - We can tell you that the fire broke out in a warehouse for Leisure Living Pool Supplies. It's operated by Leisure Pools.

Buffalo Fire's Haz-Mat team has been called out because of the potential for hazardous chemicals.

For a time thick black smoke filled the skies over the west side, blocking out the sun.
The warehouse is adjacent to the Rich Product Headquarters so both Leisure Living's warehouse and Rich Products have been evacuated.

There are no reports of any injuries, but as one witness put it, things were scary for quite some time."

Frank Hovarth, a neighbor said, "I Thought maybe the Dairy Products was on burning. I don't live like a block from it, and there has been a lot of fires around here.

Does that concern you?

Frank Hovarth: "Yeah, quite a bit. I have an abandoned house next to me too."

Hobarth was referring to the some of the areas around Rich Products on the west side. We're looking to get additional details on this as a press conference is being assembled by Buffalo Police and Fire.
