A fire midday Wednesday in the northwest valley sent up a large plume of smoke, according to the Las Vegas Fire Department.

The fire at 7240 Sisk Road, near West Elkhorn Road and North Jones Boulevard, destroyed a large outbuilding.

Las Vegas and North Las Vegas crews responded shortly after noon to the fire in the one-story, concrete building, the Las Vegas Fire Department said in a news release. The fire did not spread to any other structures on the property.

No injuries were reported, and no estimate of the damage was available, the department said.

The Clark County Fire Department was continuing to investigate the fire, which was in unincorporated Clark County, the Las Vegas Fire Department said.
