GAZETTE COVERAGE
Police closed Burdeck Street from Route 159 to Princetown Road as firefighters stretched yellow supply hoses for hundreds of yards from hydrants to the storage business.
The fire was reported at about 10 a.m., and firefighters were expected to remain on scene for hours, until about 4 p.m. at least, South Schenectady Fire Chief Dave Stern said.
“We received a call about black smoke coming from one of these storage units,” Stern said. “When I arrived, the first three units were heavily involved, with a gentleman trying to put it out himself. We pulled him away, engines arrived and we got water on the fire pretty quick.”

Two Co Down men were jailed on Friday for a fatal attack outside a pub in Portaferry which claimed the life of musician Ryan Macrae.
The deceased, who was 32 and from Killyleagh, died nine days after he was punched and kicked outside the Fiddler s Green bar in Portaferry in October 2018.
The two men who carried out the fatal attack - Jordan Donnelly (21) from Ardminnan Road in Portaferry and 30-year old father-of-two Robert Kiernan from Princetown Road in Bangor - were sentenced at Belfast Crown Court by Mr Justice O Hara.
Donnelly, who has a clear criminal record, was handed an eight year sentence while co-accused Kiernan - described by the Judge as being a persistently aggravating character on the evening of the fatal incident - was handed a nine-year sentence.
