Farm Fire

Today at about 11:00 AM firefighters were called to a fire south west of Shelby. The fire, at the old Anderson farm home, seems to have started in tall grass near some granaries then spread to a couple large round hay bales. Firefighters had some work to do getting the fire out in the hay bales as grass compacted is hard to extinguish. The fire burned around some old farm equipment but seemed to do little damage. Structures in the area, including the farm house, were not effected. The cause of the fire is not known to NBMC.
