As discussed during the dispatch call, fire crews responded to a 4th floor office fire near the intersection of Commerce Lane and Route 355 in Bethesda. The fire apparently started when sunlight refracted through a crystal ball on a windowsill. No injuries or fire spread were reported. Icy conditions from water used by fire apparatus required a salt truck to treat the area.
