Stanley Fire Crews Battle Two Blazes in One Night
STANLEY, Va. — Firefighters from Company 24 responded to two separate incidents on Sunday, December 14, 2025.
At approximately 4:33 p.m., units were dispatched to a structure fire near Valley Gas and Grocery in the 800 block of Honeyville Road.
Crews arrived to find a single-story residential structure fully engulfed.
Firefighters initiated suppression of the blaze using two 1¾-inch attack lines.
Cold temperatures and windy conditions hampered firefighting efforts. The Luray Fire Department assisted at the scene by providing a tanker.
The fire was brought under control within 30 minutes.
Crews remained on scene for an additional two hours conducting overhaul operations to ensure the fire was fully extinguished.
Details about the home’s occupants were not shared. Donation or fundraising information has not yet been released. No injuries were reported.
Later that evening, shortly after 8 p.m., Company 24 units were dispatched to a chimney fire at a second residence.
Firefighters responded quickly and were able to contain the blaze to the chimney, preventing further damage.
No injuries were reported.
Assisting agencies on both calls included the Stanley Volunteer Rescue Squad, Page County Fire and EMS, the Virginia Department of Transportation, and the Page County Sheriff’s Office.
