Man injured in S. Hall fire

FLOWERY BRANCH - Hall County Fire Services responded to the 5000 block of Bennett Road off of Hog Mountain Road Wednesday afternoon about 4:30.

Firefighters arrived to a 2,000 square foot shop building that was 60 percent involved in flames, according to fire marshal Scott Cagle.

Cagle said firefighters quickly extinguished the blaze using a nearby fire hydrant. One man suffered minor smoke inhalation after re-entering the structure to remove another occupant. He was transported to the medical center for observation.

Cagle added the fire appears accidental in nature but the investigation is still underway. A damage estimate wasn't immediately available.
