Early Morning Fire Claims One Life
January 18, 2013
One person was killed as fire destroyed their home near Beulah early this morning.
Fire ripped through the double-wide mobile home on Western Way Drive, just south of Mobile Highway, about 2:15 a.m. Neighbors reported hearing some type of explosion before seeing flames shooting from the home.
The cause of the fire is under investigation by the Florida State Fire Marshal’s Office. The victim was identified by neighbors as Mary Jean Adkison, a longtime resident.
The Bellview, Beulah, Ensley and Osceola stations of Escambia Fire Rescue, Escambia County EMS and the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office responded to the blaze.

Horrible. It just seems as thought we have had a rash of these home fires lately.
Prayers for Ms Adkison’s family.
