Eckelson  (CSi)  Sanborn fire fighters were called to a fire at an abandoned farm house north of I-94 near exit 276 on Sunday, June 19 about 4:20pm.

Sanborn Fire Chief Tim Lyter says the building was fully engulfed in flames when crews arrived on the scene.  The home was a total loss, as the protection  shifted to the  out buildings close to the fire.

No injuries were reported.

The cause of the fire is under investigation. Lyter said warm temperatures and high wind from the south fueled the fire within  minutes. The abandoned farm home was a total loss with the out buildings saved.
