Hatch Bend home survives kitchen fire

Minimal damage reported

By Ira Mikell, Free Press Reporter

Hatch Bend resident Desirdee Aleksie breathed a sigh of relief on August 15, after members of the Hatch Bend Volunteer Fire Department quickly extinguished a small fire before it got out of control and endangered her double-wide mobile home at 653 SE Cougar Road.

The fire began in the kitchen around 6:15 p.m. as a result of a pan with grease being left on the stove while Aleksie checked on one of her horses that was tangled in the fence, according to Chief Russ Harrison of the Hatch Bend VFD.

Harrison contacted the Branford Volunteer Fire Department for assistance as a precaution. Hatch Bend firefighters were successful in putting the fire out on their own and the services of Branford VFD were not needed, however.

The fire caused minimal damage to the mobile home and was confined to the kitchen, Harrison stated during a telephone interview.
