A forklift caught fire Friday morning at Advantage Logistics in Oglesby.

Fire crews were called out to the distribution center just after 2:30.  Oglesby Fire Chief Ronald Papurello says the business’ sprinkler system was activated and put out the fire.  The forklift apparently caught fire as it was being charged.

As a precaution a mutual aid request was put out to Peru, Tonica and Utica Fire Departments.  Nobody was injured.  The forklift was heavily damaged but the fire didn’t spread to anywhere else.
