Early this morning, members of our department responded to Henry County to provide mutual aid assistance at the large industrial fire involving the Sigma Renew 360 recycling facility.

Our personnel joined numerous departments from across the region in supporting firefighting operations and assisting crews already on scene. We are proud to stand alongside our mutual aid partners whenever extra help is needed.

**Fatality House Fire**

Last night, SCFR and Dover Fire Department was dispatched to a reported structure fire on General Buckner Rd. Upon arrival, crews were met with heavy fire conditions from the rear of the house and basement area, as well as some partial structural collapse. There was also reports of one person that did not make it out of the home. Extensive fire suppression and search operations were conducted. At this time one person has been found deceased and the fire is under investigation at this time. TBI is assisting with the investigation.
We would also like to thank Montgomery County Fire Department and Paris Landing Fire Department for providing mutual aid. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family
