If you need a smoke alarm in your home or need someone to test yours, the Laurel Fire Department is partnering with the American Red Cross to provide free smoke alarms for people in Laurel. Residents are invited to come out on Saturday from 9 AM to 2 PM at the Jones County Community Shelter. The Red Cross will also speak with residents about fire safety and how to be prepared. It's important that families have smoke alarms and that they are tested at least twice a year. For more information on getting a free smoke alarm installation, visit the Laurel Fire Department.
