Lynn Center is located about five miles from Orion.

The Orion Fire Department and the Henry County Sheriff's Office confirmed that a propane truck had caught on fire along with another structure.

The Sheriff's Office said several fire departments were on scene but did not confirm which specific agencies responded. They could not confirm the propane truck's association with any particular company.

The Orion Fire Department said they were still on-scene as of 6:45 a.m. and said no injuries were reported. They could not confirm from the station the state of the fire.
