(KNSI) — The Stearns County Sheriff’s Office is investigating a fire inside a barn Wednesday morning.

When the deputy arrived, they found flames coming through the roof of the building. The barn owner arrived a short time later and told the deputy the barn had been sprayed with formaldehyde on Monday.
Fire crews from Melrose and Freeport responded to the blaze. No one was hurt.
