Devastating Fire Destroys Butler County Health Department and EMA Office in Greenville, Alabama

On Sunday morning, a fire broke out on Airport Road in Greenville, Alabama, destroying the building that housed the Butler County Health Department and EMA office. The incident occurred at approximately 3:30 a.m., and by the time crews arrived on the scene, the building was fully engulfed in flames. Despite their efforts to contain the fire, it was ultimately declared a total loss.

Fortunately, no one was inside the building at the time of the fire, and no injuries were reported. The exact cause of the fire remains unknown, but authorities do not suspect arson as a contributing factor.
