Ktvus Debora Villalon is live there now. Firefighters plan to be on that scene all night. Reporter allnight monitoring for hotspots and the possibility that parts of this damaged church could collapse. Streets are still closed and the fences are up but the good news, the Church Sanctuary was saved. Definitely better than what i was imagining. Reporter staff of first come Regional Church got the first look inside the sanctuary. A mess of falling plaster, some electrical and water damage but firefighters covered the piano and or convince. And organs. With fire raging crews ran hose through the ceiling to block the blaze. Before it could crease into the heart of the church. The firefighters did an excellent job. So grateful for their speedy action in containing the fire. So the damage is not worse than it had to be. Reporter the fire looked as if it might level the church campus. It started on the roof and raced through the attic of the hundredyearold brick building. First church is prepping for solar panels and a neighbor walking by saw workers on the slate roof. They had a torch that was on a rope that was swinging but it was lit. Reporter many saw a small fire that quickly grew. I saw two workers up there and they scattered. The Fire Department came in and through a ladder up. They started to chainsaw cut and then they started fencing the roof and is spread. Reporter as it spread firefighters were working to save the second floor staff offices when everything changed in an instant. This glass skylight in an auditorium collapsed and a huge rush of smoke and heat meant everyone had to evacuate fast. One firefighter path was blocked and he called may day which put crews into rescue mode. I was pretty terrified. Yeah. You never want to hear that. And we were all coming out of the building which is a fairly chaotic time. And when you hear may day, all attention goes to that person. Reporter he got out and down a ladder from a second door window. By evening all the obvious hotspots were out and a drone helped find the rest. Using a thermal imaging camera it identifies fire not visible otherwise. So crews can direct their stream to where they are still needed. With the roof gone walls are buckling. One chimney has collapsed and others might too. Gravity could finish what the fire started. But the combination of 500 is made of Even Stronger stuff. Already making plans for where we will be on sunday and lets carry on. The building is only part of it. The community is the main part and we will come together. Reporter this is not the first big fire for this church. It had one in the 60s and another in the 70s and bounced back from both of those are so theres tremendous optimism that they will make a good recovery this time as well. The immediate concern is stability. And building inspectors will be here in the morning so until it is safe all of these surrounding streets will remain closed and tomorrow is the homecoming game so expect traffic around here to be even worse than normal. Back to you. Deborah, go back for a moment what the neighbor said about the work that was being done on the roof of that church. Are the officials confirming that that is in fact what caused the fire . Well, we asked of course. Because the Church Reverend even acknowledged that there was work going on up on the roof so that was more than just a neighbor speculating. That they were proceeding with the solar panels and prepping the roof for that. But the fire chief doesnt want to commit to that at this point. Still premature. They would like to do their investigation before they come out with a cause. Thank you so much, Debora Villalon in berkeley.
