Fire sprinklers knock down blaze in Lynnwood

Fire sprinklers were credited with preventing what could have been a devastating fire on Friday.

Firefighters were called to a business in the 5100 block of 208th Street SW about 4:30 a.m., after a malfunctioning piece of electronic equipment started a fire, spokeswoman Cathy Rizzo said.

The fire sprinkler system inside the building quickly activated, averting a blaze that easily could have caused millions of dollars in damage, she said.
