Several Moore County firefighters were called to assist on a structure fire in Richmond County on Sunday afternoon.

Around 12:30 p.m., both the Pinebluff Fire Department and West End Fire Department were requested to assist at 153 Bowen Street in Hoffman, where three storage buildings were fully engulfed in flames. The fire also spread to a nearby field, several vehicles, and several tanks believed to be filled with some kind of gas.

It took several hours for the flames to be completely put out, and the Moore County fire units to clear from the scene.

The cause of the fire is under investigation. No one was injured.
