ZEBULON, N.C. (March 12, 2026) — The Zebulon Fire Department responded to a fire in the 2400 block of Rosinburg Road on March 11, 2026, after the call was discovered by the Wake County Sheriff’s Office.

Crews were dispatched around 5:05 p.m. for reports of a brush fire. When firefighters arrived, they found a fire involving nearby woods and an abandoned home. Firefighters worked to contain and extinguish the fire. No injuries were reported.

During the night and into the early morning of March 12, 2026, the fire rekindled and firefighters returned to the scene to continue suppression efforts. Crews remained on scene working to ensure the fire was fully extinguished.

The Zebulon Fire Department was assisted by Hopkins Fire Department, Pilot Fire Department, Ferrells Fire Department, and the NC Forest Service. The Wake County Fire Marshal’s Office is investigating.

Fire Chief Perry reminds residents to be mindful of the current dry conditions. Even small actions, such as discarding a cigarette into a burn barrel or onto dry grass, can ignite a fire that may quickly spread to nearby woods or structures.

Chief Perry also encourages residents to use caution when grilling or using outdoor fire pits. Grills should be placed at least 10 feet away from homes, decks and other structures. Residents should keep a water hose or bucket of water nearby when grilling or using a fire pit and ensure fires are completely extinguished when finished. If using a burn barrel, the surrounding ground should be wet and water should be readily available to fully put out the fire.

If you see smoke or fire, report it immediately by calling 911 so emergency crews can respond as quickly as possible. The Zebulon Fire Department appreciates the assistance of all responding agencies and remains committed to protecting lives and property in the community it proudly serves.
