Walton County firefighters battled a mobile home fire early Monday morning that started in a fireplace.
The owner of the home made it out safely and no injuries were reported.
Walton County Fire Chief Tracey Vause used the situation as a reminder for those with fireplaces to get an annual chimney inspection, and to make sure the top of your chimney is free and clear of overhanging branches. He also stressed that liquid fire starters should not be used in your fireplace, to keep all flammable objects at least three feet away from the flames, and the importance of having a fireplace screen in front of the fireplace during operation.
