Escambia County - It has been a busy morning for first responders in and around Escambia County.
Crews responded to a large commercial structure fire at approximately 4:04 a.m. in the 17000 block of Perdido Key Drive.
The first units arrived on scene to find a working fire spanning multiple condos and spreading quickly due to wind and close proximity of the units to one another. It is estimated that 14 units at Key Harbour and 12 units at Pescador Landing have been destroyed. One residential stand-alone home on the west side of the fire was also destroyed and considered a total loss.
We believe all residents are accounted for, while some pets may still be missing. One resident was transported with minor injuries and smoke inhalation and one firefighter from Orange Beach was also transported with heat-related injuries. Both were taken to South Baldwin Hospital.
An estimated 75 firefighters responded with assistance from Escambia County EMS, Escambia County Area Transit, City of Pensacola Fire, Baldwin County EMS, Santa Rosa County Fire, Orange Beach Fire, Fire & Emergency Services of the Gulf Coast, Lillian Volunteer Fire Department, Gulf Power, ECUA and the Red Cross.
The fire is still active, and both lanes of Perdido Key Drive are closed until further notice. Please avoid being in the area and if possible, make alternate driving plans until reopened. The Florida Fire Marshall’s Office is investigating the fire.
Amazing teamwork by all first responders involved!
