Yesterday at 3:18 PM units were dispatched mutual aid to a wildland fire on Hummel Road to assist Mount Vernon Fire Department. Engine 83 and 3 Firefighters responded. (Pics included)

Yesterday at 9:27 PM units were dispatched mutual aid for a wildland fire on Redhill Road. While en route to this incident a reported semi truck fire on I-75 was dispatched in the county. Due to the ongoing incidents throughout the county our engine would be the closest available unit to respond so the decision was made to divert to this incident. Engine 83, Tanker 82, and 4 Firefighters responded. Also responding to this incident was Mount Vernon Fire Department and Western Rockcastle Volunteer Fire Dept.. Upon arrival it was determined the operator of the semi truck had been able to extinguish the fire using a fire extinguisher. With no fire conditions present all units cleared scene.

Once all apparatus cleared I-75, units contacted on scene command for the original wildland fire. It was determined we were no longer needed on that incident so all units returned to service.
