Fire Destroys Mobile Home

December 1, 2014


A Pine Forest Road mobile home was destroyed by a fire that appeared to start in a kitchen Monday afternoon. The fire was reported at 12:51 in the 6900 block of Pine Forest Road. It took less than 25 minutes for fighters to bring the fire under control. There was no one home at the time of the blaze and no injuries reported.

Escambia County Fire Rescue kicked off its annual “Keep the Wreath Green” fire safety campaign on Monday.  Five-foot wreaths are on display at 21 different County fire stations. Each time firefighters respond to a residential fire, a green light bulb will be replaced with a red one to remind citizens of the dangers posed by holiday decorations.

Last year, there were 13 fires during the month-long campaign, including a Christmas Day fire on Highway 4 in Bratt.
