Huntsville Amazon center has second fire in a week

Fire crews responded to a fire at Amazon’s Huntsville fulfillment center Monday night, one week after another fire sent workers home.

Huntsville Fire & Rescue responded to a structure fire at the center, at 7817 Greenbrier Road.

On Monday Sept. 26, what was described as a small, isolated fire broke out at the center, evacuating employees and sending them home. No one was hurt in the earlier fire.

All shifts at the building were cancelled, with employees receiving non-work pay.

WAFF reported that last night was the first night employees had returned to work since the earlier fire.

Attempts to reach Amazon for comment were not immediately successful.
