Fire destroyed a mobile home in Davisville Sunday morning, adding an eighth bulb in county’s “Keep the Wreath Green” fire safety campaign.

The fire on Nokomis Road just east of Highway 97 apparently started with children playing with matches on a bunk bed, according to firefighters on scene. The family was able to escape the fire with no injuries.

The fire was reported about 9:10 Sunday morning.

Family members say the family had no insurance. The American Red Cross was called to assist the family.

The Walnut Hill, McDavid and Century stations of Escambia Fire Rescue responded to the call, along with the Atmore Fire Department and Atmore Ambulance.

    Well I would love to help, what type of items do they need, besides money, which is no problem, just wanted to know if they need clothes, coats, and stuff like that.
    I am also challenging some of these Mobile Home Sellers to be good Santas and donate a mobile home. After all they do need a place for their Christmas Tree.

    glad to hear that no one was hurt, but lets get into the Christmas Spirit and help these folks out … I would love to hear that they have a new home before Christmas. Happy Holidays and be safe!
