you took a bunch of pictures of closed roads, fire trucks, people watching the fire, and not any of the fire?

I didn't read the thread till like a few minutes ago, by that time the fire was already out.

What was on fire anyways?

Looks like the Big O Tire was burning, lotsa black smoke, probably from the burning rubber.

VANCOUVER (NEWS1130): Two men are in hospital with burn injuries following a workplace accident and a fire at an auto repair shop in East Vancouver. Kingsway has been reopened to traffic between Rupert and Kerr after Vancouver Fire crews mopped up at a car repair shop whjich shares a building with the Big O Tire store.

The smell of burning rubber is evident anywhere near the fire location, and large crowds gathered to watch fire crews deal with the blaze. The fire was mostly contained to the back of the two-story building. Some cars in the area were also burned. There are apartments on the second floor of the building.
One worker tells us the fire started when a portable spot light broke, igniting fumes in the shop. Vancouver Fire have not confirmed that story, saying their investigation remains ongoing.

Callers to our newsroom describe black smoke filling the air, visible from North Vancouver and Richmond.
