A home and garage were destroyed Sunday afternoon in a fire in the Northeast Cobb area that Cobb Fire officials said took 15 units to get under control.
Cobb Fire said the home was in the Jamerson Road area, and crews were called around 12:45 p.m. with reports of heavy smoke and fire.
No one was home at the time, according to Cobb Fire, which made contact with the homeowner and said there were no injuries.
“Crews were able to respond quickly to extinguish the fire spreading in the woods, preventing any further damages to other residences in the area,” Cobb Fire said in a social media message.
Another fire broke out in East Cobb on Sunday, seven miles from the other blaze, according to the Cobb Professional Firefighters Local 2563, requiring seven units.
No details were provided, and East Cobb News has contacted Cobb Fire for information about that fire.
