At approximately 10:40 AM, Cobb Island Volunteer Fire Department & EMS responded to the 11,000 block of Cuckold Creek Road for a reported house fire.

Paramedic Ambulance 14 had just cleared another call and was the first-arriving unit, reporting a working fire. The first-arriving engine reported a two-story, single-family residence with fire throughout the first and second floors.

Mutual aid units from Charles County, St. Mary’s County, and King George County responded and operated on scene for approximately five hours. Chief 1B established and maintained command throughout the incident.

The fire was brought under control, and all occupants were accounted for. No injuries were reported.

We would like to thank all of the mutual aid departments and personnel who assisted with the incident.

A SPECIAL THANK YOU to our CIVFD Auxiliary for providing refreshments to the crews at the scene.

The water and gatorade used today to keep the Firefighters hydrated was from the Cobb Island Citizens Association water and gatorade collection drive. Your donations were greatly appreciated and came in handy today!
