Last Thursday, a potato processing plant in the town of Warden -Washington state- burned down. By Friday morning, emergency responders had evacuated nearly a third of the homes near the plant. Flames were threatening a large tank, filled with ammonia, and firefighters feared it might explode.
The plant was one of two dehydrated potato processing plants in the state, used to dry potatoes too ugly, small or large to sell to consumers. Those spuds instead end up in processed foods like instant mashed potatoes.

The fire was called in around 5 p.m. Thursday. By nearly 9 p.m. came a Level 3 “Get Out Now” evacuation order, and officers began going door to door. Residents were allowed to go home about 1 a.m. Friday morning. No injuries have been reported.
