  this morning. The blaze is at a former Bank of

  in flames. Multiple fire units are on scene.

  Authorities are asking the public to avoid the

  to the 20 block of Silver Eagle Road around 4

  a report has been filed on this matter. Later

  Saturday, a police pursuit ended with an arrest

  attempted a stop when the driver fled and led

  lost sight of the vehicle but located it a short

  and arrested on related charges. For today's
