Fire appearing to be contained to equipment over the Ohio River broke out at the grain elevator on South Main Street in Henderson around 2:30 p.m. Wednesday.
Smoke was seen billowing from a conveyor belt and below it a large pylon, and at times when the smoke cleared, flames were seen shooting up.
Several Henderson Fire Department trucks moved into the fenced area near the grain bins. Firefighters sprayed the fire from the riverbank below, from a catwalk and from an HFD boat in the river, said Chief Josh Dixon.
On Friday, Dixon said the cause had not yet been determined.
From chatter at the scene, early indications are that no one was injured or in danger.
The company is now Bunge; it was formerly Gavilon Grain.
