TFD Responds to Fire on Flicker Road

March 26, 2025

Early this morning, March 26, at approximately 4:54 a.m., the Tallahassee Fire Department (TFD) was dispatched to a structure fire located on Flicker Road. Upon arrival, firefighters found a mobile home fully engulfed in flames, with the fire spreading into the nearby woods. The structure was almost burned to the ground upon TFD’s arrival.

As crews began extinguishing the fire, unfortunately one occupant was found deceased inside the home. 

The State Fire Marshal’s Office arrived on scene for further investigation. The Leon County Sheriff’s Office assisted on scene.

Over the past few days, TFD has responded to multiple fires, including brush fires, vehicle fires and several different structure fires. TFD urges all residents to remain vigilant and proactive in fire prevention measures, including the installation of smoke alarms. Remember to check your smoke alarms to make sure they are in proper working condition, as smoke alarms can provide the early warning necessary to escape a deadly fire. A properly installed and maintained smoke alarm can alert you and your family to a fire 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
