No one hurt in morning blaze.

CANTON A french fry trailer caught fire Friday morning at the Stark County Fair.

The Fire Department was called to the Fairgrounds just before 10 a.m.

The fire started in the trailer’s ceiling, where exhaust fans vent greasy cooking fumes, and the flames spread inside the trailer’s walls, said Battalion Chief Adam Lauer.

Before the Fire Department arrived, a quick-thinking county sheriff’s deputy disconnected propane tanks from Boardwalk Fries trailer and had a tractor pull the trailer away from other food booths, Lauer said. Nobody was hurt in the fire.

The fry trailer’s crew couldn’t put out the flames with fire extinguishers, and firefighters had to cut a hole in the top of the trailer to douse the flames. Lauer estimated damage at $35,000 to the trailer and $1,000 to the contents.
