Fire officials have released the cause of the structure fire at three story Colorado Springs business Saturday afternoon, according to a social media announcement from the Colorado Springs Fire Department.

Just before 3 p.m., CSFD officials said crews were on the scene of a structure fire at 660 Southpointe Center in Colorado Springs.

At 3:07 p.m., officials said crews reported light smoke deriving from the building.

According to officials, crews inside the building discovered a small fire resulting in some burning carpet. Crews reported the fire had mostly self extinguished, causing smoke to fill parts of the building.
