The Sedalia Fire Department (SFD) was requested for mutual aid at 16131 Drake Road for a structure fire and grass fire on October 14.

SFD responded with an Engine and Brush Unit. Due to the large amount of smoke caused by the fires the Sedalia Police Department Drone Unit was requested to help locate fire extension and determine where crews needed to be to stop the fire spread.

Crews from Pettis County Fire, La Monte, Johnson County, West County Fire, Sedalia Police, Pettis County Sheriff, Pettis County Ambulance, and Pettis County Joint Communications were all active participants. No injuries were reported.
