— April 4—At at 8:30 p.m., the Franklin Fire Company responded to a reported barn fire on Gabler Road. Initial reports indicated that a Bobcat loader was on fire inside a garage.

When Chief 46 arrived, he verified that there was a working car fire. In order to stop the fire from spreading to the structure, Engine 43 swiftly used a handline to put it out. Crews checked to make sure the fire didn't spread.
