Four Homeless After Fire Damages Century Home
February 18, 2013
A resident managed to escape an afternoon house fire in Century Monday that left four people homeless.
The fire was reported about 2:45 at the corner of North Century Boulevard and Hattie Boulevard. The resident was reportedly asleep inside the home when the fire broke out and managed to escape without injuries due to individuals banging on the door of the home.
The exact cause of the fire is under investigation by the Florida State Fire Marshal’s Office.
There were no injuries reported in the blaze that left four adults homeless. The American Red Cross is assisting the four with temporary shelter.
The Century, McDavid and Molino stations of Escambia Fire Rescue, Flomaton Fire Department, Escambia County EMS and the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office also responded to the blaze.

The store is located at 9010 N Century Blvd in Century. Accepting anything you want to donate. Red cross is doing a great job as well.
Great job performed by a crew of only three firefighters on this structure fire…Lt. Lyndon Halteman, FF/DO Donald Merritt and FF Robert Sabo…multiple issues abounded at this scene as far as traffic, power lines and several spot fires in and around the structure but ECFR E519 made the difference…this was MSBU at work and a staffed engine…thanks to the citizens of Century and Escambia county for making it happen…
Amen Anthony.
