A fire broke out in the box shop of a Tyson Foods beef plant in Holcomb, Kansas, on Friday night, with no injuries reported. The company is shifting processing to other Kansas plants during rebuilding, and cattle markets fell Monday and Tuesday on processing capacity concerns.
The Kansas Livestock Association estimated the plant processes about 6,000 head per day.
