Fire Destroys Home On West Roberts Road
September 8, 2025
Fire destroyed a home in the 1100 block of West Roberts Road, Monday afternoon.
The home was not believed to be occupied at the time of the fire about 1:40 p.m. It was heavily involved in fire when the first firefighters arrived on scene.
Our cameras were there as a garage wall buckled and fell around an Escambia County Fire Rescue firefighter. He did not appear to be injured and continued to fight the blaze.
The cause of the fire is under investigation by the Bureau of Fire and Arson.

He was standing in the collapse zone. He’s fortunate that it missed him.
In that top pic it looks like those bricks are going to fall on top of that firefighter!
