A large fire was raging in East Vancouver Wednesday night, lighting up the night sky and sending plumes of smoke rising into the air. The fire broke out just before 10 p.m. PT at an industrial building just off Hastings Street, between Clark Drive and Mclean Drive. It sent thick plumes of black smoke high into the air, visible from all over the city. "With the print shop you've got all kinds of inks and acetones and cleaning compounds, extensive amounts of paper," said Assistant Chief Kevin Wilson. Fire officials said the three-alarm blaze drew more than 15 fire trucks and 65 firefighters to the scene.
