Historic Dallas church on fire
Dallas Fire-Rescue crews are battling a two-alarm fire at the First Baptist Dallas Historic Sanctuary in Downtown Dallas. Crews were called to the church just after 6 p.m ET. First Baptist Dallas was started in 1868, but the red brick building, known as the historic sanctuary was not built until 1890, according to Texas Historic Commission. It is the only downtown Dallas Church still on its original site. The church received a historical marker in 1968.
