No Injuries In House Fire Last Weekend

Nobody was injured in a Stephens County house fire last weekend.

The fire occurred late on Saturday night off of Black Mountain Road, reportedly on Cheek Smith Road. That is near the Stephens-Habersham County line.

Shiloh and Carnes Creek Volunteer Fire Departments responded, as did the city of Toccoa and a station from Habersham County.

Carnes Creek Volunteer Fire Chief Jody Marcus says the house was a total loss and two vehicles were lost in the fire.

Marcus says nobody was home at the time of the blaze.

He goes on to say crews remained on scene into Sunday and actually went back on Sunday during daylight hours to finish their work.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
