The barn was fully engulfed when deputies arrived. Deputies learned that the homeowner was in the barn and started an older vehicle when something under the engine caught fire. The fire spread before the homeowner had a chance to extinguish it, and he called 911 for assistance. The 50-foot-by-75-foot barn and contents, along with an adjacent 20-foot-by-30-foot greenhouse, were a total loss. There were no injuries.
