All Recycling on West Wesley in Englewood suffered damage after fire and explosions rocked the processing area where junk cars are dismantled.

The fire broke out before midnight.

When firefighters arrived, the processing area was fully involved.

A number of explosions were heard while firefighters battled the flames.

The explosions were caused by air bag units going off inside the structure.

There's no word yet what caused the fire.

There were no reports of any injuries.

Another fire hit the recycling center in April 2008.
