Investigators are looking into the cause of a fire at a business.

The Barron Pallet Company on Old Cuba Road in Pulaski County caught fire Wednesday morning. The fire destroyed or damage wooden pallets stored in the business. It also damaged heavy machinery and other specialty equipment, causing thousands of dollars of damage.

This fire is near the same area of Eubank where investigators are already looking into suspicious fires that destroyed a school and caused millions in damage at a lumberyard.

Shortly after our news crew arrived at the scene, the Pulaski County Sheriffs Office, along with Kentucky State Police, and a fire investigator from Somerset walked into the business. They said it was too early to say if this was an arson, but that they're not ruling anything out.
