COHUTTA, Ga. — Firefighters in North Georgia had to not only battle flames, but also the heat, as a Dollar General store caught fire on Monday.
In a post from Whitfield County Fire, photos show smoke billowing from the store along Cleveland Highway in Cohutta.
Other photos show firefighters inside the store trying to put out the flames, barely seen through the smoke.
