The Paris Fire Department got a call that someone spotted smoke coming from the courthouse at 119 North Main Street just at around 9:45 a.m. Sunday.
Firefighters contained the flames to the roof. Unfortunately, the firefighting efforts caused water damage to much of the fourth floor of the 100-year-old building.
No firefighters were injured.
