A former furniture factory burns in southwest Missouri.

Late last night, the former O'Sullivan building in Lamar, MO was reported on fire. The 1.5 million square foot facility was reported burning end-to-end. The company declared bankruptcy and closed in the early 2000s. Fire departments from Nevada, Jasper, Golden City and Carthage are assisting Lamar fire on the scene.  The fire is expected to burn all day.

The cause of the fire is unknown at this time.  Two people have now been detained for questioning.
