Firefighteres were called to the popular second-hand store on East Hastings Street on Wednesday night to find it fully engulfed in flames.

The fire did not spread to any neighbouring buildings, according to Vancouver Fire Rescue, though some did suffer smoke and heat damage. There is no indication that anyone was injured in the fire, officials said, and no word yet on the cause. However, pictures and video from the scene show that the structure was largely rubble by then.
