Smoke billows from cardboard recycling facility in Glassport

GLASSPORT, Pa. — Smoke coming from a cardboard recycling facility filled the sky in Glassport.

Crews were called to the 100 block of Ninth Street at around 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday.

At least 12 fire companies went to the scene.

Channel 11 spoke with one man who said he called 911.

“I just happened to be looking out my window; I know the kids are having a kickball tournament, and I saw smoke over there and I’m thinking it looks a little unusual,” Eric Bucynski said.

A boy named Jayvonne was riding his bike in the area and said the response shook him up.

“I was just riding my bike, all I heard was a fire truck and I saw all the fire trucks going that way. I turned around and I looked at the warehouse and I saw the fire going and all the fire trucks everywhere and I was just super scared,” Jayvonne said.

No injuries have been reported at this time.

The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
