FARMINGTON, Mo. (AP) - An investigation continues after a weekend fire damaged the Presbyterian Children’s Home and Services in the southeast Missouri town of Farmington.

The Daily Journal newspaper in Park Hills, Mo. (https://bit.ly/1hJ8uEg ) reports that residents of one building had to relocate to another on campus following the fire on Saturday. The fire was extinguished quickly, but the sprinkler system caused significant water damage.

Residents evacuated quickly and no one was hurt.
