Summary
A fire at Peoples Cartage near Parkersburg flared up again early Saturday, but firefighters quickly brought it under control. The situation grew more complex when West Virginia’s health department halted cleanup efforts, suspecting asbestos contamination from the damaged, aging building. Fire damage may have released hazardous fibers, prompting officials to require a licensed asbestos contractor to safely handle debris before work can resume — turning cleanup into a cautious wait for safety compliance.
