INCIDENT RECAP: On Monday, August 24, at approximately 3:39 PM, Hutto Fire Rescue (WCESD #3) was dispatched to the 1000 block of County Road 138 for a structure fire.

First-arriving crews arrived on scene at approximately 3:41 PM and found a barn fully involved. Crews immediately began efforts to control and extinguish the fire, which was brought under control at approximately 4:42 PM. The structure ultimately collapsed during the incident.

The fire had spread into nearby brush, prompting crews to establish a perimeter and work to prevent the fire from spreading to surrounding areas. No evacuations were ordered outside of the property where the fire occurred, and crews were able to protect the adjacent residence.

There were no injuries to civilians or firefighters. However, it was later confirmed that a dog was inside the barn and did not survive.

Crews remained on scene for several hours to ensure all remaining hot spots were extinguished and to conduct overhaul and cleanup operations. Hutto Fire Rescue coordinated with other local agencies to bring in heavy equipment for dozer operations, helping to expose and extinguish remaining hot spots and prevent the fire from reigniting.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation.

Responding agencies included Hutto Fire Rescue (Williamson County ESD #3), Round Rock Fire Department, Pflugerville Fire Department (Travis County ESD #2), Taylor, Texas Fire Department, Williamson County ESD #10, Williamson County ESD 6 Fire/Rescue, Williamson County Emergency Services, Hutto Police Department, Williamson County TX, Sheriff's Office, City of Hutto, TX Public Works, and Oncor.

UPDATE (4:55 PM): The fire is under control and crews will be working for the next several hours conducting mop-up operations. Be advised that smoke is still present in the area. Please continue to avoid the area.

We’re excited to officially announce the location of future Fire Station 6!

The property is located on the east side of Hutto along CR 132, near CR 134, and in close proximity to the Skybox data center and future “Megasite.”

Hutto Fire Rescue began planning for a future station in this general area in 2019. In 2024, the department updated its Standards of Cover and refined the planned location within the same general area based on continued evaluation of growth, development and the District’s long-term emergency service needs. Multiple potential sites within the area were evaluated as part of this process. In April 2026, WCESD #3 Commissioners approved the purchase of property, moving Station 6 from long-term planning to the next phase of development.

It’s important to understand that these decisions aren’t made overnight. They take time, careful evaluation and long-term planning to ensure we are making the right decisions for our community. Fire station locations and long-term emergency response planning involve years of evaluating call volume, population growth, existing coverage, response needs and current and anticipated development.

Hutto Fire Rescue currently serves approximately 73,000 people across our 63-square-mile service area, and that population is projected to reach nearly 93,000 by 2030. We plan ahead so that when the time comes, we’re ready to serve our community as effectively as possible, while also being responsible stewards of taxpayer dollars.

Currently, Hutto Fire Rescue operates four fire stations, along with our headquarters and warehouse. As announced in 2025, we have also secured the site for future Station 5 near Hutto ISD’s future second high school campus. With the Station 6 property now secured, we’re continuing to plan ahead for our growing community.

What’s next? The Station 6 site is still undeveloped, and we are waiting for utilities and other necessary infrastructure to become available. The construction timeline will be based in part on the pace of development in the area. We’ll continue to share more details with our community as planning continues

Our mission remains: protect lives and property and provide the highest level of emergency services to our community. Public safety will remain at the center of every decision we make.

Last month, Hutto Fire Rescue (WCESD #3) crews conducted trench rescue training alongside our partners at Round Rock Fire Department. We’re grateful to Jordan Foster Construction for allowing us to use their worksite and providing a realistic environment to practice responding to these complex and dangerous emergencies.

The training gave our crews an opportunity to strengthen technical rescue skills and improve coordination with our neighboring departments. It also served as an important reminder to the men and women in attendance who work in the construction industry about the serious hazards they face on the job every day.

Hands-on training alongside our partners and members of our community helps ensure Hutto Fire Rescue is ready to respond when seconds matter most.

Last week, kids across Hutto headed back to school, and all those back-to-school pictures had us feeling a little nostalgic. So, we asked our staff to dig through the family photo albums and share their childhood photos with us.

Hutto, please enjoy these cute grins and throwback outfits from a few of our Hutto Fire Rescue firefighters and staff.

And parents, enjoy every second of those school years, because they really do go by way too fast. ❤️
