Storrs, Conn./WTIC Radio - Four sheep perished in a Saturday night barn fire at UConn.

Crews got the call around 8:00 p.m. to Horsebarn Hill Road.


Firefighters were able to put out the blaze before there was any extensive damage.

No injuries were reported to any firefighters or civilians.

A UConn spokeswoman says the sheep herds are used in the university's Department of Animal Science's teaching, research, and community extension programs.

The Coventry and Mansfield fire departments provided mutual aid.

The UConn fire marshal's unit is leading the investigation.
