A quick response from several local fire departments was essential in fighting a house fire on Moore Street in Summerville recently. Firefighters found heavy smoke coming from the house and learned from the homeowner that everyone had evacuated safely. They quickly set up attack lines and fought the flames inside. They faced tough challenges, including no visibility and intense heat, made worse by double ceilings that made it hard to put out the fire in the attic. Still, they were able to control the fire and even rescued some fish from the smoke-filled home. Luckily, there were no injuries reported for the occupants or firefighters. The fire started in the living room near a wood heater used for heat. Firefighters from Summerville, Trion, and the Hays Correctional Fire Department fought the fire, despite the water freezing in the cold temperatures. The Red Cross was contacted to help the affected family. With more cold weather ahead, residents are reminded to use heating sources carefully and check smoke detectors.
