Residents were able to evacuate quickly, thanks to alert neighbors who noticed the smoke.

A Reminder: The Roswell Fire Department urges residents to ensure they have at least one working smoke alarm on every level of their home, including the attic and in each sleeping area. A working smoke alarm can mean the difference between life and death by providing those precious, lifesaving seconds.

What You Can Do: Check your smoke alarms today. Make sure they’re functional, with charged batteries, and replace any broken or missing alarms. Taking this small precaution can significantly improve your family’s safety.
