Fire sprinklers are credited with helping contain the spread of a two-alarm fire in a five-story commercial building in Kalihi Tuesday night.

Arriving firefighters saw heavy smoke coming from the garage area, Jenkins said in an email.
"Several fire sprinklers were activated and contributed in suppressing the flames," Jenkins said.
The fire was contained to a ground-floor unit and was extinguished by 10:55 p.m.
