Firefighters responded this morning to a structure fire on Oak Hill Road in the Mohawk Community from reports of a cabin that was fully engulfed in flames. 

The cabin was not a regularly inhabited residence, but rather a vacation or recreation/camping log cabin owned by the Paquin family.

The Brownsville, Chalybeate, and Wingfield Fire Departments all responded to the blaze. One firefighter reported that he was contacted by a member of the Smiths Grove FD, and that smoke from the blaze could be seen from the Smiths Grove city limits.

Cause of the fire is not known at this time, and there were no reported injuries.
