(KNZA)--Crews from multiple fire departments battled a structure fire in the Hoyt area Wednesday evening, with two firefighters being treated for heat-related injuries.
According to a release from Hoyt Fire Department District #3, crews were called around 6:00 to the 12-thousand block of Q Road for reports of a structure fire involving an equipment building.
Upon arrival, crews found a metal outbuilding that was fully engulfed in flames.
The release says fire crews started fighting the fire from inside the structure, but had to leave the building due to an impending roof collapse.
Crews fought the fire for several hours to ensure it was completely extinguished.
Assisting at the scene were firefighters from the Mayetta, Delia, Potawatomi Tribal, Soldier Township and Holton Fire Departments. Also assisting were the Jackson County Sheriff's Department and Jackson County EMS.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation by the State Fire Marshal's Office and Jackson County Sheriff's Office.
