A tire fire in Pennsylvania’s Armstrong County sent heavy black smoke pouring into the air on Monday.

Dispatchers say emergency crews were called to reports of a brush fire near a building in South Bend Township just after 4 p.m.

Investigators could not confirm whether the fire had spread to the building and caused the situation.

There are no reported injuries at this time.

A pile of tires resting against the building appeared to be the main source of the smoke.
