An Eldon business is considered a total loss after it caught fire on Sunday, according to a Tuesday press release from the Eldon Fire Department.

The release says crews were called to 705 East 5th Street and saw flames coming from a side of the building when they arrived at 2 p.m. Sunday.

The release says crews and equipment were delayed “because of barricades across the road at the end of 5th street.” 

Two people were injured and treated at the scene, the release says. About 300,000 gallons of water was used. Crews cleared the scene at 8:30 p.m.

The company shared images of the damage to its Facebook page on Monday.
