Fire Destroys Vehicle, But Firefighters Save Home Just A Few Feet Away
September 27, 2021
Fire destroyed a vehicle early Monday morning that was parked just feet away from a two-story house, but firefighters were able save the home with minimal damage.
Escambia Fire Rescue answered to the 4:27 a.m. call on Niall Drive, just off Frank Reeder Road, and found the vehicle fully engulfed in flames. They were able to quickly bring the fire under control.
The vinyl siding on the front of the home was damaged by the blaze.
There were injuries reported.
The Bellview, Ensley, Cantonment, Osceola and Beulah stations of Escambia Fire Rescue were dispatched to the fire.

Great job, firefighters.
Seems that more and more cars are catching fire lately and most times is the battery that shorts out, gets super hot and ignites.
Car fires are quick to spread as just about everything in them is plastic.
Thankfully, this was not one of those Full Electric vehicles where once the batteries start burning is very difficult to get under control and put out.
GREAT Job, Bellview, Ensley, Cantonment, Osceola and Beulah fire stations
