Georgia Peanut Warehouse Fire Difficult To Extinguish

Firefighters spent all Thursday night battling a large and stubborn fire at a peanut warehouse in Donalsonville. The warehouse at the Clover Leaf Cotton Gin is packed with tons of peanuts. Crews brought in heavy equipment to try to save the nuts. When fire chief Dean King first saw the huge fire, he empathized with a kid from the Bible who also had a difficult fight in front of him. “As we pulled up to this humongous building, the thought crossed my mind: ’that’s how David must have felt when we walked up to Goliath.’ How small we really are, when you pull up to a situation like this.
