MOREHEAD, Ky. - Authorities are investigating the cause of a fire at a Morehead State University building that injured four firefighters.

He said they were treated at a local hospital for minor injuries and released.
Officials said no one was in the hall, which is being used as a storage and office facility.
The university is located in Rowan County and has about 10,000 students.
