Both the Luther Grocery Store and the old Luther Hardware Store are a total loss following a fire last night in the Village of Luther.

 

The Luther Fire Department got a call around 9:11pm for a structure fire.

 

Firefighters from multiple departments battled the fire throughout the night.

 

The Lake County Sheriff's Department says the United States Postal Service was contacted due to potential damage to the Luther Post Office as it was connected to the old Luther Hardware Store.

 

The MSP Fire Investigation Unit was contacted, and the cause and origin remain under investigation.
