The Rochester Fire Department responded to a gooseneck trailer carrying round bales of straw that had caught fire.
Units were able to suppress the fire quickly. As with most hay and straw fires the heat contained within the bales is always tough to navigate.
Rochester Fire sends thanks to the Rochester Street Department and the Fulton County Highway department for bringing equipment out to assist in the efforts.
