News and Events:

Structure fire in Arborwood subdivision displaces five.
Rain was pouring down on the crews as they fought to save the single family home in Arborwood. The fire, which appears to have started in the garage area, was fanned by the winds from the tropical storm coming in off the coast. The fire quickly spread to the attic area and crews had to pull the ceilings to get to it. The cause is under investigation, and the Red Cross has provided temporary shelter for the family. No injuries were reported. Three engines, an Air unit and several volunteers were on scene to control the blaze.
