A Hall County resident was burned out of their mobile home early Thursday, and now the fire marshal’s office is trying to determine what caused the fire.
The blaze broke out before dawn at a residence in the 4500 block of Lakeview Lane, says Hall County Fire Rescue Public Information Officer Kimberlie Ledsinger.
Around 3:30 a.m., firefighters were dispatched to reports of a fully involved mobile home fire. When the first engine arrived, the home was fully engulfed in flames. Ledsinger says firefighters brought the fire under control within 20 minutes.
The resident escaped the burning home before firefighters arrived and was treated at the scene for smoke inhalation.
“They were not transported and were okay at the scene,” Ledsinger says.
The cause of the fire is unknown at this time. The Hall County Fire Marshal’s Office is investigating. The American Red Cross was notified to assist the displaced resident.
