 SLIDESHOW: See The Destruction Caused By The Powerful Blaze


VIOLETVILLE, Md. (WJZ/AP) ― The Baltimore County Fire Department says fire investigators are still exploring the cause of Sunday night's six-alarm fire at a huge warehouse in Violetville.

The investigators expect to release their findings later this week.

Meanwhile, firefighters are still at the address on Rome Road dousing smoldering debris as it is being removed by a contractor. The debris is in huge piles and includes large rolls of paper.

Fire officials say that the work likely will continue for several days and say smoke and ash could continue to pose a
nuisance in the area.

The fire ruined two buildings. Investigators estimate the loss at $15 to $20 million.
