CASS COUNTY, Texas (KETK) \u2013 The Linden Volunteer Fire Department responded to a fire at an oil storage tank site on Friday.<\/p>\n
The fire was reportedly started after a bolt of lighting hit an oil storage site off of County Road 1754 when storms were moving through Cass County at around 3:04 p.m. Because the oil site was already burning, the department said they couldn\u2019t do much until the fire burned itself out, at which time they sprayed it with foam.<\/p>\n
Linden firefighters were assisted at the scene by Cass County Emergency Services District 2, Cass County Emergency Services District 4 and the Avinger Volunteer Fire Department.<\/p>\n
Officials with Linden VFD said the fire was extinguished at 6:30 p.m. on Friday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
