Core Tip: A fire that broke out May 22 at the AVCO Meat Company caused heavy damage, but no one was hurt, according to local news reports.
Firefighters arrived at the scene around 9 p.m. to find the plant in flames. Fire crews put out the fire quickly, but there was damage to the plant’s main production area and part of the lobby, according to news reports.
