The Greene Volunteer Fire Department confirms there was a fire around five Monday night. They say bales of hay and cornstalks caught fire on a farm Southeast of Greene. Both Greene and Clarkesville responded to the fire. No one was hurt. The City of Greene posted to Facebook, saying some of the water in town may be discolored. Butler County Emergency Management says the fire department was running a lot of water through it's system to put the fire out. As a result, some residents in the area may have experienced some discoloration in their water, similar to when hydrants are periodically flushed.
