Fire insurance rates eyed after big L A area blaze near San Antonio
An extensive fire at a large auto parts warehouse complex just outside San Antonio could prompt higher fire insurance rates across Texas, though City of San Antonio rates may remain unchanged. Fire officials say a comparable Dallas department store blaze two years ago spurred statewide increases, and actuarial studies will determine state and county effects outside the city. The site was at 1H 33 and O'Conner Road, with the city limit running along IH 35.
