UPDATE Field fire destroys 10 acres
BELOIT TOWNSHIP—A corn combine and 10 acres of a cornfield were destroyed Sunday afternoon at 2918 W. Finley Road. Town of Beloit firefighters responded to the scene at 1:15 p.m. after the 1995 John Deere combine Jason Henschler was operating caught on fire. Most likely, the combine’s bearing overheated and ignited corn debris in the machine, a town of Beloit firefighter said.
