Mumbai: A fire broke out in a timber yard of Mustafa Bazaar of Mazgaon, in Byculla here.

The incident took place at Santa Sawta Marg in the early hours of Wednesday.

"The information came at around 2:25 am and we reached here immediately. We are trying to control the fire from all four sides of the timber yard. Strong winds and a large quantity of wood here is creating a problem in controlling the fire.
