Moultrie, GA - The Colquitt County Fire Association responded to a residential structure fire in the southern portion of the county, where crews encountered a building believed to be abandoned.

Firefighters initiated an aggressive attack and successfully confined the fire to the structure of origin, preventing extension to nearby properties. Operations were complicated by extreme heat conditions and the need for tanker shuttle operations due to limited water supply in the rural area.

No injuries were reported, and no additional damage occurred beyond the involved structure. Crews operated efficiently to bring the incident under control and protect surrounding exposures.
