Nine people, including five children, were burned out of their home Tuesday night in Hall County.
Firefighters battled the residential blaze at 3200 Truelove Road shortly after 6 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 3. When fire units arrived, about half of the single-wide mobile home was already engulfed in flames, says Hall County Fire Rescue Public Information Officer Kimberlie Ledsinger.
Crews attacked the bulk of the fire from outside the structure.
“The fire was knocked down quickly, and the primary search was all clear,” says Ledsinger. “The mobile home is considered to be a total loss.”
The American Red Cross was contacted to assist the four adults and five children left homeless. One juvenile was evaluated on the scene but was not transported to the hospital.
The Hall County Fire Marshal’s Office is investigating the cause of the fire.
