What is left of the former Valley View Mall will begin to be torn down Friday, a day after two Dallas firefighters were injured battling a fire at the abandoned site.
Dallas Fire-Rescue tells FOX 4 they have been called to the former mall multiple times since then.
In November 2022, the city sent a letter to the property owner calling for more protection and requiring that they demolish what was left of the building by June 1, 2023. Last month, the city warned property owners that the site would be designated a "habitual criminal property" following ongoing criminal activity that resulted in a series of fires.
On Thursday morning, Dallas Fire-Rescue was called to a fire at the mall and two firefighters were injured battling the blaze. One firefighter was burned, another had what the department described as a "musculoskeletal" injury. Neither injury was life-threatening.
