EMORY — The Emory Volunteer Fire Department responded to a structure fire at the Kearney Trailers facility on Highway 19 on Saturday. According to our news partner KETK, the department said they were called out to the fire at 2:09 p.m. and when Engine 1 arrived at the facility they found smoke coming out of every door on a manufacturing building which was on fire in the back of the property.<\/p>\n
Engine 1 then called for assistance and fire departments came from all across Rains County and neighboring areas. With their added assistance, firefighters were able to contain the fire to the main structure and its contents. The fire was extinguished by 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, according to an Emory VFD Facebook post.<\/p>\n
Emory VFD also thanked South Zan Zandt Volunteer Fire Department Chief Gregg Beverly for offering to send a crew to the Emory station to take calls if needed. Hopkins County EMS responded to the scene with their Ambus to provide water and keep the firefighters hydrated.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe couldn\u2019t have done it without the help and support of our mutual aid departments and our community. We had people offering to bring waters snacks and whatever else we needed while we were out on this fire yesterday and we want to say thank you and we are truly blessed to have a community that supports their fire departments as much as y\u2019all do!\u201d<\/p>\n
