A fire broke out Sunday at a site office of the Rapid Metro Rail here, a fire official said. There were no casualties.

The site office being run in a pre-fabricated container on the Golf Course Road here caught fire Sunday evening. The office was closed as it was Sunday.

Three fire tenders were put into service, and more than a dozen firemen doused the blaze in half an hour.
