January 14, 2022
Fire that destroyed a home in Ensley Thursday afternoon is being blamed on a candle.
Escambia Fire Rescue responded to North Ensley Street about 2:20 p.m. to find flames and smoke from the back part of the wood frame home.
The occupants were alerted by working smoke detectors and were able to escape without injury. A small dog was found inside the home and was resuscitated before being reunited with its family.
According to ECFR, the cause of the fire was a lit candle that fell onto a mattress.

So happy no people were injured, and thank God that sweet baby was saved. Praying for the family. I know what they are going through, as I lost my house to bad wiring twenty years ago, and lost four of my kitties.
