Fire Units Dispatched To Fran’s Country Grill In Molino

October 21, 2008

Fire stations from Ferry Pass to Century were dispatched to a reported commercial structure fire at Fran’s Country Grill in Molino this morning, but the call turned out to be a trash fire.

The Molino Station of Escambia County Fire-Rescue was first dispatched to a vehicle fire at the popular Molino restaurant just before 6:00. Based upon information from the caller about flames over or near the building, the call was upgraded to a commercial structure fire. That prompted dispatchers to send fire units from stations in Ferry Pass, Ensley, Cantonment, McDavid and Century.

An further investigation by a caller and a call from the restaurant indicated that the fire was actually boxes burning behind the building. All fire stations were then canceled except for Molino. The first Molino unit on the scene reported that the restaurant was burning boxes in a barrel behind the building on Highway 29,

All fire units were completed by about 6:05.
