Emily Brown was a passenger with her mother Pam, traveling down Littleville Road when she told her mom she could see a house on fire. The Kyle Rushing home, located just off Littleville Road at 145 Brookwood Drive, was cast in total darkness and flames were easy to see. Her mother stopped at the Martin house across the street and Rita called 911, A quick response from the Haleyville firemen kept the fire in the end of a two car garage from destroying the home. Wendy Rushing and two young daughters were home at the time and first noticed the power going out. After discovering the fire, Wendy immediately took the children out back of the house and called her husband Kyle who called 911. The fire was determined to be caused by electrical wiring near the service box at the house. Kyle praised the quick response of the Haleyville FD for saving his house. Haleyville was assisted by Pebble Fire Department equipment and men.
