Lexington authorities say a boiler plant fire left the north campus at the University of Kentucky without heat.

Lexington Fire Department Battalion Chief Jeff Nantz says firefighters were called to UK's boiler plant Friday night after a boiler caught fire.

The Lexington Herald-Leader reports the exact cause of the fire wasn't immediately known.

Nantz says the fire was difficult to extinguish because of the amount of smoke.

He says firefighters also had to make sure the boiler didn't overheat and explode. He says UK will be assessing the damages.
