A large fire broke out at about 1 a.m. in a commercial building on Tijnmuiden in Sloterdijk, Amsterdam. Firefighters scaled up their response after the fire developed quickly, and heavy smoke made it difficult to locate the seat of the fire.

The fire was brought under control at about 2:15 a.m. Checks found no remaining heat sources in the cavity or ceiling. No one was injured, and the cause remains under investigation. The building sustained major damage.
