On Monday afternoon, the Mount Pleasant Fire Department was called to the scene of a fire at a local farm, where they encountered a significant blaze that caused considerable damage to the property. The fire originated in a tack room, leading to the complete destruction of that particular structure along with everything inside it. Preliminary investigations suggest that the cause of the fire was electrical, likely initiated by a small refrigerator. Fortunately, the quick response of the firefighters prevented the flames from spreading to adjacent buildings, thereby averting a potentially larger disaster.
