An extra-alarm fire broke out around 6:30 p.m. in a pallet yard at 25th and Rockwell streets Monday evening in Little Village prompting a 2-11 alarm. The wind Monday night made fighting the fire more difficult.

Ten hose lines were used at the fire which was contained to the pallet yard. The fire was under control by just after 8:30 p.m.

No injuries were reported.
