Murfreesboro Fire & Rescue Department's Engines 1 and 4, Ladder 1, and Rescues 7 and 9 responded to a fire at 1119 Hanson Street (Parker's Window Tinting) around 2:45 Saturday morning.

When units arrived on scene, the smoke was rolling out of the building.

Crews were able to extinguish the fire quickly according to Shift Commander Dale Maynard. "They got inside and got it knocked down fast," said Maynard.

Maynard also said that they got word that the owner of Parker's lives right above the business. They conducted a total of three searches for any occupants and did not find any sign of anyone being in the building.
