Firefighters use a fan to vent smoke from a home at 361 E. Kremer-Hoying Road in St. Henry at 10:59 a.m. on Monday. St. Henry Fire Chief Matt Lefeld said flammable materials in a trash can spontaneously combusted inside the home, which is under construction, causing about $10,000 in smoke damage. The fire was reported by a passerby and about 30 firefighters from St. Henry, Burkettsville and Coldwater departments responded with a total of seven trucks. No one was injured and firefighters returned to the station at about 1 p.m.
