From the Hampton FD Facebook page (Hampton FD photos):
On September 4, 2026, at approximately 6:04 p.m. Hampton Public Safety Communications received a call for multiple vehicles on fire in the 600 block of Shell Road at an auto repair facility. As additional information was provided to the dispatcher the call was upgraded to a commercial structure fire and a second alarm was called at 6:08 p.m.
Hampton Division of Fire & Rescue (HDFR) units were dispatched and arrived on scene at approximately 6:10 p.m. While enroute HDFR’s Engine 9 noted heavy smoke visible from Aberdeen Road.
HDFR crews began an aggressive fire attack and search. The fire was knocked down at approximately 6:32 p.m. And subsequently marked out at approximately 6:46 p.m.
One patient was transported to a local hospital with life threatening injuries. All other occupants had evacuated the business prior to HDFR’s arrival.
Additional resources from Newport News Fire Department and York County Fire Department were provided to support on-scene fire suppression and backfill Hampton stations, ensuring continuous service to the city.
The cause of the fire is unknown at this time and under investigation with the Fire Marshal’s office.
