PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — A large fire has destroyed a fuel silo at a lumber yard in Lyons.
Fire department spokesman Alan Hume says firefighters from 11 fire agencies battled the four-alarm blaze at Freres Lumber Co. Saturday afternoon.
He tells The Oregonian that the fire destroyed 100-foot fuel silo, which provides fuel for a boiler.
Hume said the fire apparently started at the top of the silo. The fire extended to the top of the second silo, but no other buildings were burned.
