A collaborative effort involving members from various fire and law enforcement agencies has been mobilized to assist in a critical land search and rescue operation in Unicoi County. The teams participating in this mission include personnel from Lawrence County Fire Rescue, Loretto Fire Department, Loretto Police Department, Maury County Fire, Spring Hill Fire, Columbia Fire, and Mount Pleasant Fire.
These dedicated individuals have demonstrated remarkable bravery as they extend their support to neighboring counties facing challenging circumstances. After driving through the night to reach their destination, the team is currently engaged in a briefing to prepare for the arduous task ahead.
This mission is expected to be both physically demanding and emotionally taxing for all involved. As the situation unfolds, we encourage the community to keep these first responders and all those affected by this tragic event in their thoughts and prayers.
