An Edinburgh warehouse was destroyed in a Friday fire.
First responders were called early Friday evening to Group Metal Recycling. The warehouse was fully involved when crews arrived.
The roof also collapsed.
Added concern was the presence of oil and propane tanks inside the structure.
No one was injured as firefighters took over two hours to extinguish the fire. No one was inside at the time of the fire.
Assistance was provided by several area fire departments including Nineveh, German Township, Amity, Trafalgar, Franklin, and Columbus Township Fire Departments.
Local authorities and the Indiana State Fire Marshal's Office are investigating. Anyone with information should contact Edinburgh Police Chief Doyne Little at (812) 526-3500.
