WHEELING, W.Va. (AP) – Police in West Virginia say a fire has destroyed a former skating rink. Wheeling police spokesman Philip Stahl tells news outlets the large fire took several hours to bring under control Tuesday night in the building located next to a casino and a high school football stadium on Wheeling Island. No injuries were reported. Stahl says the fire did not threaten any other structures. Operations at the Wheeling Island Hotel-Casino-Racetrack were unaffected by the fire. Stahl said the former rink was being used for storage for the casino. The building was constructed in 1924 as a state fairgrounds exposition hall. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
