An overnight fire at an West Babylon car dealership destroyed at least four vehicles.

The fire started just after midnight at Frontline Auto Sales on Route 109.

The manager told News 12 that at least four cars were destroyed, and the side of the businesses was damaged.

"Horrible. It’s a horrible thing…We got lucky a little bit because no one got hurt and we are going to keep going. We are still here to sell cars," said manager Arthur Maldonaldo.

It took one hour to quell the flames. It was not immediately clear how it started.
