๐ Hyden Fire Department โ Mutual Aid Response
At approximately 2:12 PM, Hyden Fire Department was dispatched for mutual aid to a reported residential structure fire.
Squad-1 arrived first due and found a single-story structure with heavy smoke showing. Crews stretched a hose line and initiated an interior attack, extinguishing all visible fire. Firefighters then conducted salvage and overhaul operations to ensure the scene was safe.
All units cleared the scene without further incident.
Hyden Fire Department would like to thank Thousandsticks Fire Department and Stinnett Fire Department for their assistance and teamwork during this incident. We appreciate our neighboring departments and the cooperation that allows us to better serve our communities.
Special thanks to assistant chief Shane Wilson on his strong leadership and incident command today!
Working together to protect Hyden and Leslie County. ๐
