TYLER, Texas (KLTV) - UPDATE 2:30 p.m.: Tyler Fire Marshal Paul Findley said the fire is still under investigation and there were no injuries. The structure was vacant at the time, but someone was seen in the area around the time the fire started. They are working on getting a description out.

Several first responders responded to a structure fire around 3:00 in the morning on Sunday in Tyler.

Smoke could be seen coming from a building nearby the ‘Off Gentry Car Wash and Detail’ near east Gentry Parkway and Normandy Avenue. As many as a dozen Tyler firefighters were inspecting the building.

The right two lanes of Gentry Parkway were blocked until at least 4:00 this morning but have since reopened. We expect to learn more about whether anyone was inside the building and what caused the fire.
