Trash Fuels Fire At Country Foods

There was a fire at Country Foods in Spanish Lookout this afternoon at 3:00. When we spoke to the manager this evening, he told us that one of his employees had lit a pile of garbage on fire in the yard but the wind carried the fire to a pile of expired rice, beans and eggs that was in front of the building. That's when the fire got out of control. The fire department is processing the scene right now. What you see here is a video taken from Facebook – in it, you can see the 2 piles of garbage on fire. The manager told us the fire caused more than $5,000 worth of damages.
