VIDEO: Giant Fuyao Glass America plant fire burns for hours in Ohio

PHOTOS: A huge fire at the Fuyao Glass America plant in Moraine burned for hours Sunday night as crews battled weather conditions and high winds. The flames tearing through the roof of the automotive glass company’s production complex could be seen for miles.

The fire started around 8:30 p.m. at the plant on West Stroop Road and flames were still burning after midnight, Moraine Fire Marshal Doug Hatcher said. The fire started on the roof of the building, Hatcher said, but he could not say if there was damage within the building.

He said the fire struck a newer part of the Fuyao complex, where the company had been setting up new manufacturing lines. Fire crews had to suspend aerial ladders above the roof due to lightning strikes in the area. Hatcher said crews would continue working after the storm died down.

Multiple area fire departments assisted the Moraine Fire Department, although a Moraine dispatcher could not immediately say how many. Thousands of gallons of water were used to fight the fire.

Driver ignored road closure before ending up in river, Snohomish fire officials say

PHOTOS: Crews from Snohomish Fire District No. 4 rescued a driver Thursday evening after he drove past a road closure sign and into the floodwaters, authorities said. The incident occurred in the 10100 block of Old Snohomish Monroe Road, south of the town of Snohomish, where firefighters were dispatched to assist Snohomish County Sheriff’s deputies already on scene with a vehicle in the water.

The call was upgraded to a water rescue, and rescue swimmers deployed an inflatable kayak to reach the driver, fire officials said. The driver declined to use the kayak and instead walked back to safety with the rescue team, according to the fire department.
