Sherman Volunteer Fire Department responded to a reported gas grill on fire on the back deck of a residence yesterday afternoon. Firefighters found the blaze had been extinguished by the resident with a fire extinguisher. Fire officials are reminding residents to have a working fire extinguisher and ensure their homes are properly marked with easily identifiable mail box numbers. This home was in a tough to access lake community, and firefighters used an onsite trolley to access the property.
