Quick response keeps Wallace fire to a minimum
Just before 10 p.m., a person was driving down Bank Street when they saw the small blaze in the window of the main floor of the old White & Bender Building that houses Johnson’s Gems at 524 Bank Street in the heart of downtown Wallace, and promptly called 911.
