On Friday morning around 10:45 am, the Hickerson Station Fire Department was called to a structure fire on Flora Lane. Upon arriving on scene, the house and two vehicles in front of the garage were fully engulfed. Multiple agencies were called for assistance.  With a lot of great team work, the fire was brought under control by noon, but unfortunately the home and the vehicles were a total loss.
Units remained on scene until approximately 5:30pm ensuring that every hot spot was extinguished.
Hickerson Fire Department, Tullahoma Fire Department, Manchester Fire and Rescue, along with volunteer units from Hillsboro, Summitville, and New Union assisted on the scene. Others helping on the scene included the Coffee County Sheriff’s Department, Rescue Squad, Emergency Medical Service, and Emergency Management.
