Black Ops Paintball & Airsoft continues operations following fire

By Savanah Ramsey, posted 3 years ago

After Black Ops Paintball & Airsoft was a victim of a robbery just last week, the company now faces a new challenge as its building caught on fire early Tuesday morning. 

The business is still open and plans to continue offering outdoor play for participants. 

“We have another building on the other side of the property that still has power and everything we need where we can run airsoft,” Nate Gienger, owner of Black Ops Paintball added.

The fire has been classified as an electrical fire. 

“It looks like an outlet had a charger or something plugged into it, and something failed and caused the fire to start,” said Gienger.

The building will undergo construction to fix damage from the fire. An engineer and builder have visited the facility to assess the damage and will be working to finish construction as soon as possible.
