Winchester Road is shut down between Delaware Avenue and Midland Avenue due to a fire at the Smucker's plant.

The blaze broke out on the roof of the plant around 5:30 a.m. Wednesday.

Firefighters say sparks from a flue connected to a peanut butter roaster apparently blew out onto the roof, sparking the fire.

Fire crews had the fire under control as of about 6 a.m.

All of the workers evacuated the plant and there were no reported injuries.
