HADLEY, Mass. (WWLP) - Fire investigators in Hadley believe a faulty sign may have sparked an overnight fire at a car wash.

It happened just before 2:00 a.m. at the Golden Nozzle Car Wash at 456 Russell Road.

Assistant Fire Chief Ed Dudkiewicz said when firefighters arrived the front of the building was fully engulfed in flames.

Dudkiewicz told 22News the fire may have started in the 'Golden Nozzle' sign above the exit.

Mutual aid was called in from neighboring communities including Northampton, Amherst and South Hadley. No one was injured in the fire.

Frank Roberts, the Director of the Golden Nozzle, told 22News the damage appears to be mainly to the exterior of the building. He hopes to have the car wash up and running in the next few weeks.
