BARDSTOWN, Ky. (WLS) -- An entire bourbon storage facility has completely collapsed at the Barton 1792 distillery outside Louisville, Kentucky.

WLKY reports half of the facility collapsed last month sending 9,000 aging bourbon barrels tumbling to the ground. The company was in the process of cleaning up when the other half collapsed on Wednesday.

No injuries have been reported.

The Environmental Protection Agency and Kentucky Fish and Wildlife are at the scene.
