"BARDSTOWN, Ky. - Flames engulfed a seven-story bourbon warehouse Monday,
sending alcohol-fueled flames more than 100 feet in the air.

Emergency officials did not know the fire's cause, but the company said in
a statement from its headquarters in Deerfield, Ill., that lightning was to
blame.

Bourbon from the warehouse ran off into a nearby creek and caught fire.
Firefighters began to dam up the area, said Fire Chief Anthony Mattingly. "
