Fire Destroys Davisville Home (With Photo Gallery)
November 11, 2014
Fire totally destroyed a home on Highway 97 at Greenland Road in Davisville early Tuesday morning.
The 1700 square foot brick home was full involved and the roof had already collapsed when the first firefighters arrived on scene just after 1:00 a.m. There were no injuries reported.
The home had no electricity, and the occupants had moved out of the rental home within the past 24 hours, the homeowner told officials.
The exact cause of the blaze is under investigation by the Florida State Fire Marshal’s Office.
The Walnut Hill, McDavid and Century stations of Escambia Fire Rescue, the Atmore Fire Department, Atmore Ambulance and the Escambia County (FL) Sheriff’s Office responded to the blaze.

No Electricity? Empty? Explosion?
Propane/kerosene heater left on?
Incendiary Device?
hmmmmm….
There was some kind of explosion that started the fire I think. We live across the street and we heard what we thought was a gunshot before the smoke started getting bad. I’m glad no one was hurt, whatever happened.
Glad no one was hurt.
Interesting circumstances. Wonder what caused the fire.
