Damage Estimate Available in Storage Units Fire
By: Fox S.A. Staff
There is now a better sense of the cost of damage from the fire at a storage unit business on San Antonio's northwest side.
Officials now say the fire caused at least $80,000 in damage.
But officials say that number could only rise.
The fire damaged 27 units at Uncle Bob's Storage on Culebra and we're told not all of the people affected have showed up to sort through their belongings.
There's still no word on what sparked the fire.

Austin woman gets 50 years for attack on ex-spouse
May 22, 2013 10:46 GMT
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) -- A Central Texas woman has been sentenced to 50 years in prison for beating and shooting her ex-husband amid a child custody dispute.
Jurors in Austin on Tuesday sentenced Andria Stanley over the February 2012 early-morning attack. She was convicted of aggravated kidnapping, burglary of habitation and two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
Jason Witt and Stanley divorced in 2009. They have two children.
The Austin American-Statesman (http://bit.ly/13FU79W ) reports the defense referred to the Bible and redemption in seeking leniency for Stanley.
Prosecutors say Stanley left the children with her mother in Palestine (PAL'-uhs-teen) and drove to Austin with her father's gun and a wooden club.
Witt testified his ex-wife broke into his Austin home as he was falling asleep, then beat and shot him.
