timesgazette.com

Fayette County Sheriff's deputies say three workers were injured in a barn fire Tuesday at the Straathof Swine Farm facility on Old U.S. Route 35 near Boyd. 

The barn was under construction and is a total loss. 180 hogs died in the blaze at the same farm where 5 thousand pigs died in a barn fire last June.
