FORT WORTH — A Fort Worth factory that makes skateboards, surfboards and snowboards was heavily damaged when a four-alarm fire ripped through the plant early Tuesday morning.

The first alarm was sounded just before 1:30 a.m. at Nash Manufacturing in the 3400 block of May Street.

Flames lit up the night sky as firefighters raced to keep it from spreading. Highly flammable resins used in the manufacturing process apparently helped fuel the fire.

No one was hurt.

The cause of the fire was under investigation.
