A fire early Sunday morning in Jacksonville has left a home gutted but resulted in no injuries. The Anniston Star reports that the home on Boozer Drive about four miles west of Jacksonville wasn’t occupied when it caught fire early Sunday and burned for more than two hours before firefighters could contain the blaze.
Jacksonville Fire Department was called to the scene around 2:30 Sunday morning, and assistant chief Randy Childs told The Star that the cause of the fire is not currently known. Firefighters spent nearly two hours before the fire could be contained. Childs said that while the structure is still standing, the home is “a total loss.”
23 firefighters from Jacksonville, Angel, Weaver, and Alexandria fire departments were on the scene to battle the fire.
