NEW: On Tuesday, October 6, at 7:08 a.m., Dallas Fire-Rescue (DFR) units were dispatched to the Texas State Fair for a reported fire. A large column of smoke could be seen upon arrival; and when firefighters arrived on location, they discovered fire coming from a gaming stand.
 
They were able to quickly extinguish the fire, declaring an “out taps” at 7:26, but the stand, which was identified as a “ring toss” game, sustained significant damage. The gaming stands were not open for business at the time of the fire, and there were no injuries reported. Though the fire is out, firefighters are still putting out hot spots located within several stuffed animals and other prizes.
