LOGANSPORT, Ind. (AP) — Authorities say fire engulfed a science classroom in a northern Indiana middle school.
The fire at Columbia Middle School in Logansport was reported about 2 a.m. Monday.
No injuries were reported, but the school was closed for the day.
Assistant Fire Chief Mike Wollington says firefighters were able contain the blaze to the classroom, although other parts of the school had smoke and water damage.
Schools Superintendent Julie Lauck says it appears the fire was caused by a heat lamp that was warming a snake cage.
