A barn at the Hazenberg Dairy burned on Friday, Dec. 7, 2018. Damages were estimated at $150,000

A wood and metal barn at the Hazenberg Dairy, 5828 Champoeg Road NE, near St. Paul was destroyed by a fire Friday night.

The St. Paul Fire District arrived at the scene around 8:45 p.m. where they found the 130-foot-by-50-foot barn engulfed in flames.

Due to extreme heat, the roof collapsed shortly after the first engine arrived.

Crews battled the flames for more than four hours, with assistance from Tualatin Valley Fire and Rescue, Aurora, Dundee and Woodburn fire departments.

Canola and straw stockpiles fueled the fire, which destroyed more than $150,000 of farm materials. No one was injured.

The cause of the fire is unknown, according to a press release from Mt. Angel Police.
