A home was destroyed by fire today on Mowbray Mountain, according to a news release from Hamilton County Emergency Services.

The Mowbray Volunteer Fire Department responded to a report of a house fire at noon today at 1232 Hot Water Road. The first unit on the scene reported fire showing on the left front corner of the house and immediately requested a mutual aid response from the Sequoyah Volunteer Fire Department and Dallas Bay VFD.

Fire spread quickly throughout the double-wide mobile home so firefighters conducted a defensive attack to contain the fire to the single structure.

No one was home and no injuries were reported. Hamilton County EMS was on the scene for any potential injuries to the firefighters.

Damages are listed at $35,000.

The cause of the fire is under investigation by the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office.
