Fire damages John Deere plant in Waterloo
A fire at the John Deere tractor plant in Waterloo caused about 10000 dollars in damage. Firefighters rushed to the 3500 block of Donald Street at 8 21 a.m. in a caustic strip area where paint is stripped and vented. Welders worked to access the vent as a cutting torch ignited heavy paint residue, damaging the ventilator machinery and wiring.
