EYOTA, Minn. – A wind-driven fire destroyed a barn and damaged two farm buildings and three silos north of Eyota. There were no injurie. Nobody was at the farm when the fire began, which delayed a fire call, said Eyota Fire Chief Jeff Peck. The roof of the main structure had already collapsed when fire crews arrived about1:30 p.m., Peck said. Fire departments from Dover, Eyota and Rochester responded.
