The smoke smell and fire alarm activation were reported by a sheriff’s deputy in the building. After a thorough investigation, it was determined that the smell originated from a television that was overheating in the Escambia County Sheriff’s Department area of the building.

Fire departments from Century, McDavid, Molino and Flomaton all responded to the initial call.
