FROM 1A
Fire
According to a press release from Dawson County Fire
and Emergency Services Director Danny Thompson,
Engine 2 arrived on scene at 12:29 p.m. with heavy
smoke and flames showing from a single wide mobile
home at 5858 Hwy. 53 East.
When crews arrived, the mobile home was more than
76 percent involved and crews worked in a defensive
mode of operation to contain the fire.
The fire was declared under control at 12:57 p.m. Firefighters
remained on scene for several hours hitting hot spots, according
to Thompson.
All occupants had exited the structure, with two occu
pants sustaining injuries. They were transported to Grady
Memorial Hospital.
The mobile home was searched for any additional vic
tims or animals at which time crews discovered two
deceased canines and felines.
The fire is being investigated by the Dawson County
Fire Marshal’s office. The cause is undetermined, but
does not appear to be suspicious in nature.
