A fire broke out Monday morning at a recycling plant in Prairieville.
Smoke from the blaze at Southside Recycling, located at 15542 Airline Highway, could be seen from Interstate 10. WBRZ News 2's Danielle Jackson reported that piles of smashed cars were on fire, not the building itself.
The Prairieville Fire Department says the fire could have started by someone dropping off a barbecue pit with burning coals still inside.
