TFD Responds to Residential Fire on Cattail Court

March 18, 2025

On March 18, 2025, at approximately 12:49 p.m., the Tallahassee Fire Department (TFD) was dispatched to a reported structure fire in the 5500 block of Cattail Court. Upon arrival, firefighters found heavy fire coming from two single-story residential structures. Crews immediately initiated fire suppression efforts and were able to bring the fire under control, preventing further damage to nearby properties. A search of both structures confirmed that no one was home at the time of the fire. There were no reported injuries.

The cause of the fire is currently under investigation.

The Tallahassee Fire Department was assisted on scene by the Leon County Sheriff's Office, Leon County EMS and Talquin Electric Cooperative.

TFD reminds residents that smoke alarms are a critical first line of defense in protecting your home and family from fire. Remember to check your smoke alarms monthly and replace the batteries at least once a year to make sure they are in proper working condition. Install a smoke alarm in every bedroom, outside each sleeping area and on every level of your home. If your smoke alarms are more than 10 years old, replace them to ensure they are functioning properly. Get tips and more fire safety information by following TFD on Facebook and visiting Talgov.com/Fire
