MONTREAL - At least 80 dairy cows are dead after fire swept through a farm west of Quebec City on Sunday.

About 60 firefighters were still at the site as of late Sunday afternoon, although the barn was completely destroyed.
Officials believe the blaze started in a second-floor hayloft.
No injuries were reported and the cause of the fire is not yet known.
