Kraft foods cold storage facility may have been lit by tractor-trailer fire.

Multiple emergency units responded to the Kraft Foods cold storage facility in Bethlehem Township where a tractor-trailer fire apparently ignited a portion of the massive warehouse.

By 9 p.m., much of the emergency operation had ended, with several of the units leaving the scene at 2600 Brodhead Ave. Nonetheless, it was unclear how much damage had been done or if there were any injuries.

A second alarm was called at about 7:30 p.m., according to the Breaking News Network. Companies from Williams Township, Lower Saucon Township, Palmer Township, Nazareth, Fountain Hill and East Allen Township were among those that responded, along with companies from Bethlehem Township.
