ALLIANCE, Ohio — Schott Feed and Supply, Inc. was destroyed in an early morning fire Aug. 16.
At 2 a.m., Aug. 16, the Alliance Fire Department, with mutual aid from the Sebring and Washington Township fire departments, responded to a fire call at the mill, an older, mostly wooden facility.
Fortunately, no one was in the mill and no crew or family members were injured, but the mill is considered a total loss.
By 4:30 a.m. the fire was mostly contained, says Assistant Fire Chief Kemp, but there is still some smouldering. Crews will stay on scene until the fire is completely out and it is deemed safe.
At this time, the cause of the fire is still under investigation.
