Lamar County Fire Rescue

The County road Dept is shutting down Lanette Cir in the morning to remove and replace a pipe in the road. E-8 with a 1st responder will be staffed on the other side of the road to serve the citizens that will be impacted in case of an emergency. E-8 will remain until the road is back open

9/11 monument that is located in station 1...like LT. Stanley said we remember! 343 firefighters lost their lives that horrific day. We will take a moment to remember all that perished that day. "He bravely March into the depths of hell to face the fears of many, and to extinguish the demons that rage free. All men are created equal but then a few become firefighter's."

In roughly 30 minutes (11am), We will be testing the county tornado sirens. This is part of the testing that we strive to complete twice a month

The storm has knocked out all of our lines. 911 calls will be sent to Pike county 911 and then transferred to us via cellphone. Please be patient as we wait on AT&T to restore our phone lines. 911 calls will be rerouted and answered at Pike County 911. Thank you for your patience.

At 8:40am this morning, Lamar County Fire Rescue was dispatched to Country Kitchen Restaurant for a structure fire. E1 and multiple volunteers arrived at the scene at 8:43am. Crews made entry and found smoke and fire above the ceiling of a new addition. E8 and E3 arrived to scene shortly after. Crews were able to stop the spread and put the fire out with minimum damage to the structure. Crews ventilated the restaurant and then turned the property back over to the owners.

Lamar County Fire Rescue was dispatched to a 2 Vehicle accident on Ga 7 and Trice Rd. Ga 7 was temporarily blocked on both sides while EMS and Fire crew's performed patient care. A LifeFight helicopter was requested and landed on Ga 7 to transport a patient to a trauma center. The highway is at this time re-opened

Praise report: Deputy Weaver just received a very good report. Still has some issues ahead so keep those prayers coming!!!

We are praying for our brother in blue....

Around 4:00 pm, a powerful storm came through Lamar. At 4:05pm, the Lamar County Fire Department was dispatched to multiple locations in Milner for trees and power lines being down on road ways. E1, Chief Matthews and multiple volunteers responded. Shortly after, we had multiple engines(E1,E8,E3,E6) and pov's surveying damage and checking on the citizens of Milner. It appears that the damage was from straight line winds. At this time, we would like to advise the roads are back open and no citizens were harmed by this storm.

Special thanks to (Chuck Odom of GPSTC and David Hopper Guerilla crash testing team) without them this training would not have been possible LCFD Got to do som...e real life training tonight with a STAGED car crash conducted last week at the Georgia Public Safety Training Center in Forsyth. Most of everyone on this page has seen the video of the crash testing done last week tonight we got to use the crash as a part of the LCFD Monday night training. The serrano was that a patrol car during a traffic stop was struck from the rear. The patrol car had a person who had just been arrested in the rear of the car and was trapped in the vehicle as a result of the collision. There was also a bystander that was trapped under one of the other vehicles involved in the crash. Part of the responding firefighters were responsible for removing the victim in the rear of the patrol car and other team members were responsible for removing the victim trapped under the car. (It don't get no more real than this ) REMEMBER NO DUMMYS WERE INJURED DURING THIS TRAINING EXERCIZE TONIGHT....LOL See more
