Three pigs perish in Rosalia fire

A fire Friday night destroyed the former Rosalia Gun Club building which had been donated to the school district. The fire took the lives of three pigs which were being raised as student projects in a lean-to on the side of the building. Rosalia Fire Chief Bill Tensfeld said that the fire started off a heatlamp in the lean-to and spread to the gun club building which contained haybales. Oakesdale sent a crew to assist at the scene. After stopping the structure fire the crews had to take the smoldering hay bales out of the building and douse them. They were on the scene until about 11:30 p.m.
