FORT HILL, Pa. (AP) - Addison Township supervisors were burning trash when they accidentally burned down the municipal building and destroyed a brand new truck.

 

The supervisors left the trash fire unattended and "it caught some material behind the building on fire," said Bill Barlow, chief of the Addison Volunteer Fire Co.

 

No one was injured in Tuesday's fire, about 80 miles southeast of Pittsburgh, not far from the Maryland border.

 

The building was used as a garage and for meetings and elections.

 

The new one-ton pickup truck that burned had only 100 miles on its odometer and had been received by the township on Monday, said Galen Beachy, a township supervisor. Luckily, most of the township's plowing equipment and the records are stored elsewhere, he said.
