PLAINS TOWNSHIP, LUZERNE COUNTY- Firefighers battled a huge fire at the Woodlands Inn and Tesort in Plains Township Tuesday night.

When we arrived, a storage shed behind an area where cabin's are rented was fully engulfed.
The fire was confined to that shed, which housed equipment used to do work on the grounds.
Firefighters say there were a couple of small explosions that they say may have been caused by propane tanks inside the shed.
They had trouble fighting the fire because the closest fire hydrant was at Route 315, Which forced them to string their hoses a long distance.
One firefighter was evaluated at the scene after complaining of dizziness.
The cause is under investigation.
