Van catches fire at Grabill gas station

A man's van mysteriously caught on fire will sitting at a Grabill gas station Saturday morning.

Employees at the Marathon station on Highway 1 in Grabill say the van started smoking and then caught on fire as it sat there. They say the van was not running at the time.

Workers say they grabbed fire extinguishers inside the station and borrowed one across the street at a neighboring business to fight the flames before the fire department came.

The volunteer firemen are still unsure why the fire started in the first place.
