Officials will be looking into the cause of Tuesday’s huge fire in downtown Frankfort that destroyed at least two buildings and injured a firefighter. Frankfort Fire Chief John Kirby says flames were visible when they arrived on the scene. Kirby says at that point it was a “defensive” attack as the flames spread to the building next door which housed the Frankfort Sports Club and some apartments upstairs where everyone was evacuated.
