A barn was destroyed by fire along U. S. 68 near Hopkinsville Monday night.
Square Deal Fire Department Chief Kieth Sholar says the barn located just south of the Eagle Way Bypass belonged to Browning McKinney. Sholar says McKinney told firefighters the fire likely began due to lightning during a thunderstorm.
Sholar says the barn was engulfed in flames when firefighters arrived on the scene. He adds the owner told firefighters there was no major equipment or other contents in the barn.
