WHEATFIELD - Fire crews spent a large part of Thursday afternoon fighting a fire that broke out inside NIPSCO's RM Schahfer Generating Station in Wheatfield.
Wendy Lussier, NIPSCO Director of Communications, says it started at about 1:30 p.m.
"And as a result of the fire we did evacuate a portion of the facility and smoke has been visible in the vicinity to people who are out in the community," Lussier says.
