12/18/07 - Structure Fire

 

A few minutes after midnight volunteers were requested to respond to Highway 231 in the City of Arab for a working commercial fire. Engine 3, Rescue 4, and Chief 1 responded with 6 volunteers. Volunteers arrived to find a mid size shopping center with fire in the end cap building and smoke extension into several stores. Arab Firefighters did a fantastic job making quick work of the fire and preventing what could have been a far more serious incident. Brindlee Mountain volunteers assisted with ventilating several of the adjacent storefronts. In addition to Arab and Brindlee Mountain, the City of Guntersville also responded. We applaud the good work of the Arab Fire Department and are thankful to have them as friends and neighbors. Chief Phillips (Arab Fire) had the incident command.
