Fire Engines from 3 County fire stations along with a water tanker and the volunteers responded.  As personnel responded toward the fire many reported seeing a large plume of black smoke in the area of the fire.

Department of Natural Resources personnel were on scene prior to the arrival of the first fire engine and reported that the single wide mobile home was fully engulfed and that the fire had spread into the nearby woods.

The local Georgia Forestry office was notified and on standby in the event that their services were needed.

Lt. Hudson was first on scene and began a defensive operation to protect exposures until additional resources arrived.  Once the other fire engines arrived personnel quickly knocked down the fire in the residence and woods.

Personnel remained on scene for several hours extinguishing remaining hot spots.

Due to the extent of damage the Red Cross was notified to assist the occupant with daily essentials until they could get back on the feet.

The cause of the fire is under investigation and there were no injuries as a result of the blaze.
