LIHUE, Hawaii (AP) — Firefighters in Hawaii were able to get control of a large fire at a biomass plant on Kauai Island that broke out on Friday.

An image of the fire showed red flames and black smoke billowing into the sky.
The fire was contained within Biomass Power Plant and didn’t threaten the public, officials said.
