TFD Extinguishes Utility Trailer Fire on Corlett Street
August 25, 2022
On August 25, at 10:23 a.m., the Tallahassee Fire Department (TFD) was dispatched to a vehicle fire threatening a structure in the 4000 block of Corlett Street. Initial crews arrived on scene to find fire coming from a utility trailer with a 500-gallon tank attached. The trailer was close to a large structure. TFD personnel acted quickly to attack the fire, which was spreading due to large amounts of fuel on the ground. TFD was able to stop the fire from reaching the larger structure. A small portable structure was damaged. There were no injuries reported on scene.
TFD was assisted on scene by the Leon County Sheriff's Office. The Department of Environmental Protection was called to the scene to assist.
