During a long hot dry summer holiday weekend on St George Island a wildfire is ignited by a careless vacationer starting a

charcoal fire. The wildfire quickly grows into a massive conflagration threatening lives and structures. Within minutes it has cut the island in half between West 9th & 10th Streets. With

strong winds blowing from the east, emergency responders now face the potential of a large loss of life due to the lack of

an escape route from the west end of St George Island.
