Recently closed Luling Buc-ee’s catches fire during demolition; new location nearby undamaged

Buc-ee’s recently opened a brand new location next door to the original gas station, and a crew has been doing demolition at the old site. It was not immediately clear whether the demolition process led to the fire, according to a report from the Gonzales Inquirer.

No injuries have been reported. The area around Buc-ee’s was blocked off Monday, and people were asked not to turn into the store from Highway 183, the Inquirer reported.

Multiple fire departments responded to provide assistance, and they said that the fire was not expected to endanger the new Buc-ees location, which the company calls the world’s largest.
