Athens police officer loses home in fire

FROM City of Athens, Texas Government

One of our own Police Officer’s suffered a personal loss today and is in need of assistance.

Officer Jonathan Hutchison’s house in Malakoff caught fire while they were sleeping early this morning. Thankfully, Officer Hutchison, his wife Kelsey and their 2-year-old son Maddox escaped without injury, but they lost everything in the blaze. They will be staying with family who live in the area for the time being.
