PHOTOS: Firefighters spend the overnight and early morning hours battling a five-alarm fire on Lyell Avenue.

The fire broke out shortly after 11:00 p.m. Sunday at Pallet Express, on Lyell Avenue near Glide Street and spread to a fifth alarm very quickly.

They got the fire under control by Monday morning. No injuries were reported.

Lt. Howard Villegas, a public information officer with the Rochester Fire Department, said crews expect to be on scene for hours but are confident they can keep the fire from spreading.

“Considering the heavy fire load, we’re going to be here quite a while, but we’ll have it contained to just this building,” he said.

Villegas said the building is a large structure filled mostly with pallets, and that several trucks on the property are also expected to be lost. No one was inside the building, he said, and while it had sprinklers, they were unable to contain the fire.

Neighbors were evacuated due to concerns the fire could spread to residential areas. RG&E is reporting more than 500 outages in the area around the fire.
