Cause of the Olivia Apartments’ fire still unknown

Additional information was released today by authorities as efforts continue to find the cause of the fire that ignited the Olivia Apartments.

During a press conference held at Joplin City Hall on Friday, investigators stated that the cause of the fire had not yet been determined.

A structural engineer will visit the building over the course of a week to 10 days.

Those results should help narrow down the source of the fire and how it destroyed both the 5th floor and the roof.
