A massive and fast-moving fire at an Ohio insulation factory has sent flames shooting two stories high and caused the building's walls to collapse.

Workers got out safely Sunday night before fire crews arrived at Janesville Acoustics in Newcomerstown.

The blaze drew firefighters from more than 15 departments in two counties. Crews were still trying to put out hot spots this morning.

The company makes insulation primarily for the automotive and transportation industries.

The fire's cause was not immediately clear.
