At least two barns were destroyed in an intense dairy farm blaze in Pennsylvania, but no one was injured.

LNP reports the Friday morning fire north of Ephrata, in Lancaster County, broke out just after 7 a.m. It was under control around 9:30 a.m., but crews remained on site dousing hot spots.

A witness tells the news site the fire seemed to fully engulf the barns in less than a minute.

It wasn’t clear if any animals were in the barns.
