The Yazoo City Fire Department’s central station collapsed early Saturday evening with rubble from the historic building falling into Washington Street next to City Hall.
Fortunately, no one was inside the building when it collapsed, and the incident remains under investigation. Our local firefighters were returning from a call when the incident occurred and were not inside the building when it came crashing down. We thank God for that silver lining.
