By now, you’ve probably heard about last night’s demise of the American Furniture Manufacturing facility in Pontotoc County.

Reports are that a fire started in the warehouse portion of the plant around 5:30 p.m. and quickly spread, destroying the offices and Plant No. 1. You can read the story from today’s paper here. For pictures, click here.

Dennis left bright and early this morning to see what’s left of the plant and what’s going to happen to the 1,100 employees. Stay tuned for updates.
