A fiber optic cable caught fire in the East Broad Street Garage early this morning, forcing police to shut down streets around the corner of Broad and Clinton at 6:00 a.m.
Firefighters said the cable was burning in the ceiling of the former Midtown Plaza garage, which is connected to Tower 280, the renovated Midtown Tower. It was contained to a small area and nobody was hurt.
The garage is open for business today and the cause of the fire is under investigation.
