Barn fire reported on North Byron Road

By Billie Owens

A barn fire billowing black smoke is reported at 6029 N. Byron Road. Byron Fire Department is responding along with Elba. Bergen is asked to stand by.

The address is between Shelt and Searls roads.

UPDATE 8:40 p.m. (by Howard): It's unclear what's going on. A chief sounds like he's told some units to stand down. Dispatchers have asked radio traffic be kept to a minimum because of multiple calls in progress, so there's little information clearly associated with this call available.

UPDATE 8:47 p.m.: Law enforcement requested to the scene for alleged burning of illegal materials.
