Several fire trucks and police vehicles could be seen at the scene as people walked in and out of pens and appeared to try to move animals, including horses and donkeys.
The ranch, which was purchased back in February, adopts animals and offers home-schooling support to kids in the community.
The owners have been working on getting permits from the city to tear down the barn and replace it with a brand-new one.
