Greenhouse Catches Fire
A Chester Township greenhouse in Ohio
recently caught fire while a homeowner was
inside the building using a propane tank
with a torch on the end to burn weeds. Local
fire chief John Wargelin said the weather
was very windy, so it got away from him real
quick. When firefighters arrived, eight greengreen
houses were burning and fire spread to an
apartment building and a barn. The burning
greenhouse plastic created a lot of thick,
black smoke. No injuries were reported.
