JACKSON, Miss. (WDAM) - As spring approaches Sunday, Mississippians are being reminded to test their smoke alarms to be aware of possible house fires.
Mississippi State Fire Marshal Mike Chaney encourages citizens to reach out to their local fire department if they cannot afford a smoke alarm.
“There were 69 fire deaths in 2020,” Chaney said. “In 41 of those fires, there were no working smoke alarms in the home. If you cannot afford smoke alarms, call your local fire department. They may be able to install alarms for free.”
