    Medford, OR – A large structure fire erupted last week in west Medford, near Rogue X, leaving investigators puzzled over its origin. The fire, which heavily involved fiberglass materials, rapidly spread, sending thick smoke billowing across the valley.

    According to the Medford Fire Department, it took approximately 40 minutes for firefighters to bring the flames under control. The intensity of the fire was fueled by the fiberglass inside the building, which caused the blaze to burn fiercely and create significant smoke.

    Despite the efforts of the fire department, the cause of the fire remains undetermined. Medford fire investigators have stated that they are still working to determine the origin of the blaze, though no conclusions have been reached.

    The scene of the fire has since been handed over to insurance companies, who will begin their own investigations to determine what led to the fire. As of now, the investigation remains ongoing, with authorities continuing to look into the circumstances surrounding the event.

    The fire, while under control, caused disruption to the area, and the lingering smoke served as a reminder of the destruction caused. As local investigators work to find answers, the community remains in the dark about what may have sparked such a destructive fire in west Medford.
