(KNZA)--A rural Holton tractor fire spreads to a large equipment shed, with fire crews Friday afternoon battling the blaze.
Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse says the tractor fire was reported around 4:00 at 21085 O. Road, with the Holton Fire Department rushing to the scene. As the fire spread to the shed, the fire departments from Mayetta, Hoyt, and the Prairie Band Potatwatomi Nation arrived to assist.
The shed became fully engulfed, with black smoke from the fire seen for miles away.
It took firefighters nearly an hour to bring the fire under control, with the loss estimated at around $300,000. Morse says that includes both the structure, and its contents, which included farm machinery, building supplies and hay.
Firefighters remained on the scene until 7:00 Friday evening, with no injuries reported.
The Jackson County Sheriff's Office and Jackson County EMS also provided assistance during the battle against the blaze.
