For the third time in just over a day, an abandoned building in the valley has caught fire. The old Alystra Casino on Boulder Highway and Sunset went up in flames Tuesday night.
The fire started a little before 7:00 p.m. Flames could be seen shooting out of the building and the smoke from the fire could be seen for miles. Firefighters say they haven't had a big blaze like this in quite some time.
Ladder trucks continue to douse hot spots as a cloud of smoke rises from the rubble.
Reporter Aaron Drawhorn will have the rest of the story tonight at 11.
