State fire marshals are investigating the cause of a fire that destroyed a garage and motorhome.
According to an email from White County Public Information Officer Bryce Barrett, shortly before 2:00 p.m. on Sunday, White County E/911 Dispatch was notified of a Motorhome Fire in the 5200 block of Highway 255 South in Cleveland. White County Fire Services responded supported by the Habersham Fire Department due to the proximity to the county line.
First arriving units found a motorhome fully involved with a fire that had spread to the garage structure in which it was parked. Fire personnel began to protect nearby exposures and prevent the blaze from spreading to a nearby wooded area.
Mutual Aid was provided by the Habersham County Fire Department, providing an engine, tanker, and fire personnel.
The motorhome and garage structure were deemed a total loss, and the cause of the blaze is currently under investigation.
