Alpena County, Mich. — A barn in Alpena County has been completely destroyed due to a fire.

Firefighters and first responders arrived on the scene at 9299 Hubbard Lake Road just before noon. They battled the flames until the barn collapsed. No one was hurt or injured during the blaze.

Sanborn Township, Wilson Township, and Hubbard Lake first responders battle the flames. Firefighters were happy to get to the scene as soon as possible to help stop other buildings from going up in flames.

“There was already flames showing…it was fully engulfed,” said Hubbard Lake Firefighter Josh Wojda. “We had water show up when we needed it, so that’s what we’re here for, to help the community out.”

Investigators are still trying to determine what started the fire. The barn did have some valuable items and equipment, but no further details have been provided at this time.
