Allen-Clay fire battles blaze at DZ Motorsports

Staff report

ALLEN TOWNSHIP – All three Allen-Clay Joint Fire Stations were called at 4:36 p.m. Monday to a structure fire at DZ Motorsports on Ohio 51 .

Upon their arrival, the structure was in tact and the fire and smoke was coming from a snow mobile behind the store, according to fire chief Denny Hartman.

There were injuries, and the fire was contained within minutes causing minor paint damage to the store.

Hartman said the department came at the right time because the fire could have spread to the structure and cause more damage.

The fire started from a spark from a corn-burner exhaust near the parts.
