ST. LOUIS – An overnight fire destroyed a warehouse Friday morning in north St. Louis.
The fire occurred around 1:20 a.m. in the 4300 block of Margaretta Avenue. When officers arrived on the scene, they found heavy flames coming from the warehouse.

The building had been closed after being damaged in the May 2025 tornado in north St. Louis.
