Fire and hazmat crews are on the scene of an industrial fire at a chemical plant in Doylestown.

The three-alarm fire broke out just before 5:30 a.m. at Arbonite, a chemical lining and coating company, on the 3800-block of Old Easton Road in Bucks County.

No one was evacuated, but hazmat crews were called to the scene because chemicals are stored on-site.

The fire was placed under control at 7:40 a.m.

One firefighter was taken to a local hospital from the scene for injuries unrelated to the fire.

No other injuries have been reported.
