VIDEO: Fire, explosions destroy industrial building in Ohio; no injuries reported

PHOTOS: Explosions and a large fire prompted a large response in Lebanon. Firefighters spent hours putting out flames at an industrial building off State Route 48m by Turtlecreek Union Road. The Lebanon Fire Department says it was an explosive battle, contained to an industrial garage located at the back of the property.

It happened at the R.W. Long Lumber and Box Company. Crews say the fire broke out around 10:30 p.m. Tuesday night and kept crews busy for hours. Winds overnight made that even more challenging, with wind speeds around 15 mph, along with 25 mph gusts.

Officials say there were semi-tractor trailer and pallets inside the building, leading to explosions, though it is unclear what exactly was inside. Fire crews described the challenges they faced.

“With something like this, a house would be a whole lot easier,” Asst. Chief Derek Harper, with Lebanon fire, explained. “This takes a lot of manpower, it takes a lot of guys, it takes a lot of water, it takes a lot of time. We had to bring in front loaders to dig through all the debris, tear down some of the walls, dig through the pallets so that we could finish putting the fire out.”
