On Saturday afternoon at 3:38 PM, the Maury County Fire Department responded to a reported brush fire along Culleoka Highway. Upon their arrival, firefighters encountered a significant blaze that had spread across several acres. Their immediate priority was to protect nearby structures from the advancing flames. Recognizing the scale of the situation, a second alarm was called to bring in additional personnel to assist with the firefighting efforts.
While the teams were engaged in battling the fire on Culleoka Highway, two additional brush fires ignited in the southern region of the county. This prompted the fire department to request mutual aid from the Summertown Fire Department to ensure that all incidents were managed effectively. Thanks to the coordinated efforts of the firefighters, the multiple brush fires were successfully brought under control and extinguished.
