MILBANK, S.D. (AP) - The South Dakota Fire Marshal’s Office says it cannot determine the source of a fire that destroyed Titan Machinery in the northeastern South Dakota town of Milbank, but the cause does not appear suspicious.

Officials say the May 4 blaze involved multiple explosions inside the building and ash from the fire traveled as far as a mile. No injuries were reported.

South Dakota Department of Public Safety spokesman Tony Mangan tells KWAT-AM that the Fire Marshal’s Office completed its investigation but investigators cannot determine the source of the fire. Mangan says the cause does not appear suspicious.

West Fargo, North Dakota-based Titan Machinery is a dealer of agricultural and construction equipment.
