Fire destroyed a tobacco barn belonging to Garnett Farms on John Rives Road early Thursday morning.

Pembroke Volunteer Fire Department Assistant Chief Nick Belair says the barn and contents was already a total loss when the first firefighters arrived.

He says the owner of the barn had checked on it a few hours prior to the blaze and everything was okay. The Trenton, Fairview and Oak Grove fire departments assisted at the scene.

Meanwhile, fire also destroyed a tobacco barn on Graysville Road just south of KY 181 in the Guthrie area just after 4 p.m.
