SPRINGHILL, La. (From news reports) -- The International Paper facility in the Springhill-Cullen area is up and running again Tuesday after a small fire.
Cullen Fire Chief, Tommy Arnold, said they were called to the facility around 6 p.m. Monday.
Arnold says a machine caught fire but the sprinkler system kicked in, putting out most of the flames. The fire department extinguished the embers left behind. That malfunctioning machine has been shut down.
