From left, Atmore Fire Department Capt. Daniel Love, Chief Ron Peebles, and Lt. Daniel White stand clear as Firefighter A.J. Beachy uses a pike pole to push a large section of rotted tree that fell on a communications line on Horner Street during the September 20 storm that passed through the city. The tree knocked out cable-based services for several Mediacom and Frontier customers, but did not play a role in a power outage that struck in the same area of the Atmore’s southeastern sector.
