The Staples office supply store in Cochrane Plaza will be closed for the next few weeks while damage from a recent fire is repaired, according to staff at the Gilroy Staples branch. Fire crews responded to the fire about 6:38 a.m. Nov. 2, according to CalFire Battalion Chief Brandon Leitzke. The fire started in the section of the store, at 1023 Cochrane Plaza, where copy machines are displayed and sold, Leitzke said. The fire set off automatic sprinklers in that section of the store, causing extensive water damage. The cause of the fire is unknown, Leitzke said. The Morgan Hill store “should be open by Thanksgiving,” said Cecilia Mora, a cashier at the Gilroy Staples store. The Gilroy Staples is located at 8840 San Ysidro Ave.
