Overnight fire destroys home

Posted: Updated:
SPENCER CO, IN (WFIE) -

A home is destroyed by fire near Chrisney in Spencer County.

The fire broke out around 3 this morning in the 600 block of East County Rd. 800 N.

Workers at AK Steel reported the flames to dispatchers.

Since the house is in a rural area and there are no fire hydrants, tanker trucks were called to bring in water to fight the fire.

No one was home at the time.

The homeowners are in the process of moving but many of their belongings were still inside.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.
