A fire inside a cooling unit at the Dollar General store in Rockaway Beach has temporarily closed the business.
Chief Chris Berndt with Western Taney County Fire Department confirmed to Branson Tri-Lakes News they received a call regarding smoke in the building caused by one of the coolers. No flames were showing but the store filled with smoke forcing an evacuation.
In an email to the BTN, Dollar General officials says the Rockaway Beach store would remain closed until they can assess the damage to the store and determine when and if they can reopen.
