One resident was displaced and transported to the hospital following a house fire on Esther Drive in Gainesville early Wednesday morning.
Hall County Fire Rescue units were dispatched to the 3100 block of Esther Drive around 3 a.m. to find heavy fire in the garage and main living area of a split-level home. Firefighters quickly extinguished the bulk of the blaze using hand lines and a deck gun, says fire department spokesperson Kimberlie Ledsinger.
The American Red Cross was notified about the damage to the home. The Hall County Fire Marshal’s Office is currently investigating the cause of the fire.
