Four junk cars parked at a business, Magnolia Hut, burst into flames after one was being cut with a torch, Warren County Volunteer Fire Coordinator Kelly Worthy said. The fire was reported at 3:46, and firefighters worked for 30 minutes to extinguish it. Smoke from the blaze could be seen across much of the area. No injuries were reported.
