Prince George Fire Rescue completed its investigation into a downtown fire last month.
The Jan. 17 blaze destroyed the former City Second-Hand building on the corner of 4th and Dominion and prompted evacuations nearby.
Investigators say the cause of the fire is undetermined because of the extensive damage.
However, they say the probable cause is accidental due to inappropriately stored materials in the building.
Investigators say there's no evidence unauthorized people entered the building prior to the fire, so there is no RCMP investigation.
