| Firefighters battle a blaze that destroyed a mobile home in North Cooleemee last Friday afternoon. |
Roshelle Shanks was in the single-wide mobile home when it caught fire just before 3:30 p.m., said Cooleemee Fire Chief Brian Williams.
“It was fully involved when the first truck got to the scene,” Williams said. It took firefighters 35 minutes to get it under control.
The cause of the fire is not known, said Davie Fire Marshal Jerry Myers. The woman’s mother, Thelma Davidson, who lives in a house on the same property, called 911.
The fire started in a bedroom. “She said she was trying to find something and it caught on fire,” Myers said ... subscribe to the Davie County Enterprise Record, P.O. Box 99, Mocksville, N.C. 27028.
