On Sunday, January 5th, both the Hampshire and Hohenwald Fire Departments swiftly attended to an emergency call regarding a fire at a residential property. The individual who made the call indicated that the flames had been extinguished and confirmed that all occupants had evacuated the premises without injury.
The incident originated from an ash bucket located on the back porch, which ignited and subsequently spread flames to the entire deck. This fire then began to affect the lower part of the house. Fortunately, the damage sustained was minimal, and all residents were unharmed.
The homeowners expressed their gratitude for the rapid response from the fire departments, acknowledging their efforts in preventing further damage to their home. Their prompt action played a crucial role in mitigating the situation and ensuring the safety of everyone involved.
