South Haven Area Emergency Services helped to put out a barn fire in Covert Township Tuesday morning. It says getting to the scene in the 73,000 block of County Road 378 was difficult due to its location and the snow. Firefighters had trudge through foot-deep snow and stretch hose lines several hundred feet to reach the blaze. Three goats died in the fire, but there were no human injuries. Also on scene were the Covert Fire Department, and fire departments from Bangor and Watervliet.
