SISSONVILLE, W.Va. - One of the Sissonville Volunteer Fire Department's stations has collapsed in a fire.

The fire was reported to Kanawha County Metro 911 shortly before 9 a.m. Friday. Dispatchers say no one was in the building at the time and there were no injuries.

Fire Chief Thomas K. Johnson says two fire engines, a water tanker and a six-wheel all-terrain vehicle were destroyed.

Kanawha County Commission President Kent Carper estimated damage at $750,000.

Carper says the county will loan a fire truck to the department and arrange for portable buildings until the station and equipment can be replaced.

Johnson says the department has two other substations and covers about 125 square miles
