Crews responded to a report of a fire at the UPS Warehouse on Opportunity Road in Northwest Rochester just before midnight. Reports indicated that flames were visible on the exterior of the warehouse and that there may still be a person inside the building.

First-arriving crews identified that multiple trucks parked on the north side of the building were on fire, and smoke was coming from the building. The crew began extinguishing the fire from the outside. Additional crews went into the warehouse to stop the spread of the fire and extinguished it. Nobody was found in the building. Other crews used a ladder truck to reach multiple "hard-to-reach flames" that were on top of the delivery trucks.
