The main purpose of the text is to inform readers about the fire. The text provides details about the fire, including when it occurred, where it happened, how many firefighters responded, and the current status of the situation. While the text does mention that the cause of the fire has not been determined and that the extent of the damage is still unclear, these details are secondary to the main purpose of informing readers about the fire. The text does not discuss the potential financial repercussions of the fire, nor does it try to persuade readers that the fire was serious. The mystery behind the fire is mentioned, but it is not the main focus of the text.
