A fire in Attica destroyed a shed belonging to Indiana Township Fire Chief Kurt Lambirth early Wednesday morning.

Lambirth tells KNIA/KRLS News a neighbor noticed the fire, but by the time Indiana and Knoxville Township Fire departments arrived at the scene the building was fully engulfed and a total loss. He lost several pieces of equipment stored in the shed, but says he is thankful for the community support he has received in the wake of the incident. Lambirth believes lightning struck the building, based on weather data he saw after the fire.
