Two Unrelated Walnut Hill Fires Damage Homes On The Same Road
March 23, 2010
Two unrelated fires damaged two different homes a mile apart on Arthur Brown Road in Walnut Hill Tuesday night. Both fires were apparently accidental.
Firefighters responded the 5000 block of Arthur Brown Road near Morgan Road about 7:50 p.m. When they arrived, light smoke was pouring out of the wood frame home. The fire was in a rear bedroom of the home and was quickly extinguished. Damage from the fire was limited to the bedroom, but the entire home suffered some smoke damage.
The occupants of the home were able to escape without injury. The exact cause of the blaze is still under investigation.
As fire units were completing the cleanup at the first fire, another fire was reported about 9:20 p.m. in the 6000 block of Arthur Brown Road near Juniper Street.
The fire was contained to the kitchen area of the home. There was some smoke damage throughout the brick home. There were no injuries reported. The exact cause of the fire is still under investigation.
The Walnut Hill, McDavid, Century and Molino Stations of Escambia Fire Rescue and the Atmore Fire Department responded to both calls.
