Daytona Beach Firefighters Keep Growing Brush Fire Away from Apartment Complex
Daytona Beach, FL - Daytona Firefighters responded to a brush fire that was approximately one acre in size near a Daytona Beach apartment complex on May 12th. Firefighters were able to get control of the brush fire and prevent it from nearing the apartment buildings. No residents needed to evacuate and no one was injured. High winds caused the fire to continue to grow and create lingering smoke in the area, but with the help of the Florida Fire Service, firefighters were eventually able to get the fire completely out.
