Cleanup is underway at a Hall County home following an early morning fire on Wednesday.
Hall County Fire Rescue crews were called to a reported structure fire at approximately 3:00 a.m. along the 3100 block of Esther Dr. in Gainesville. Hall County Fire Rescue spokesperson Kimberlie Ledsinger says upon arrival, their units saw a split level residential structure with heavy fire in the garage and main living area. Crews began an attack with hand lines on the inside of the home.
Ledsinger says the bulk of the fire was extinguished quickly and the primary search was all clear. One unidentified resident was displaced and transported to the hospital for further evaluation.
The American Red Cross was notified due to the damage that occurred in the home. The Hall County Fire Marshal’s Office is investigating the scene for a cause.
