Fire crews responded to a Hillsboro church after someone smelled smoke in the building, Thursday.

Hillsboro Fire and Rescue responded to St. Mary Catholic Church, Thursday afternoon. Officials from the fire department say they were called to the church on South High Street at 3:20pm to check on a reported odor of smoke. 

Investigators found that a floating candle with plastic around it had burned down to the container, which resulted in smoke.

There was no damage in the incident.
