Fourth Residential Fire Of The Month In Santa Rosa
December 12, 2011
A residential structure Monday night represents the fourth candle to be extinguished on Santa Rosa County’s “Keep Your Holidays Bright” fire safety tree. About 8:11 p.m., East Milton, Bagdad, Skyline and Harold fire departments responded to the home located in the 5700 block of North Airport Road in East Milton. The fire was contained to one bedroom, however the entire home incurred smoke damage displacing the family of two. No injuries were reported and the American Red Cross was called to assist. The cause of the fire is under investigation by the state fire marshal.
Santa Rosa County emergency service agencies are teaming up for the fifth year to promote fire safety during the month of December with the “Keep Your Holidays Bright” campaign. While a joyous time of year, cold weather, holiday decorations and festivities can create serious fire dangers. Fire fighters hope to reduce the number of fires in Santa Rosa County by promoting simple, life-saving holiday safety tips throughout the month.
