The Terre Haute Fire Department responded to a fire in the downtown area this evening.

This is a developing story, however, the Mullican Law Office at 318 S. Fifth Street was engulfed in heavy smoke upon crews' arrival. A young woman at the scene said she lives in an apartment upstairs in the building and knows another tenant had a cat inside. No report of injuries or how many tenants are displaced.

Due to the Labor Day holiday, the law offices were closed for business today.

The fire is under investigation at this time. Look for updates soon.
