BROOKSVILLE, FL - Shortly before 4:00 P.M. on April 4th, Pasco County Fire and Rescue were dispatched to Donnelly Ct for a mobile home on fire. Heavy smoke could be seen from a distance as companies arrived to find the home well-involved. Tankers were sent due to the lack of water in this area. Hernando County Fire also sent an Engine to the scene to assist. The fire was quickly knocked down as the long overhaul commenced to contain any hot spots from igniting what was left of the home.
