MADISON COUNTY, Texas (KRHD) — The North Zulch Volunteer Fire Department spent Sunday evening fighting a barn and hay fire.
Assistant Chief Pat Coveney says the fire on FM 1372, west of FM 39, started when a handheld grinding tool ignited a single bale of hay. Soon after, the fire had burned through 500 bales.
Roughly ten departments responded to help knock down the flames. Crews were able to save a second building on the property.
A firefighter overheated at the scene and needed medical attention.
