SMITH COUNTY — Firefighters in Lindale responded to a blaze at a plant nursery late Friday afternoon. KETK reports it happened at Blalock Wholesale Nursery on Highway 110 North just south of Interstate 20. Authorities say it spread from a smoldering burn pile that workers thought was extinguished. The fire spread to huge stacks of plastic pots, which shot out giant plumes of black smoke as they burned. No reports of injuries.
