Man Goes Fishing; Fire Destroys His Cadillac
November 3, 2008
Fire destroyed a car near a lake on Old Flomaton Road Monday morning.
The vehicle owner says he parked the Cadillac to go fishing in the lake, and the car was on fire when he returned.
Fire officials say the fire most likely was started with the hot catalytic converter came in contact with dry grass. The resulting grass fire likely set the car on fire, they said.
There were no injuries in the fire, which was reported about 10:20 Monday morning.
The Engine 519 from the Century Station of Escambia Fire-Rescue, the Flomaton Fire Department and the Escambia County Sheriff’s Department responded to the call.
