Chief: smoke scare from HVAC unit prompts response from Spartanburg Co. fire departments
on December 4, 2020 at 4:42 am
SPARTANBURG COUNTY, S.C. (FOX Carolina) - The fire chief for a Spartanburg County department says a smoke scare from an apartment complex's HVAC unit prompted crews from multiple departments to respond to the scene late Thursday night. Dispatch says multiple crews were on scene at the Hidden Park apartments along Spruce Street around 11:30 p.m., and were actively involved in the call. We were told multiple departments were working, with Whitney FD as the lead. According to Whitney FD chief Shawn Petras, the call evolved to be a smoke scare from a unit's HVAC system, and crews originally were told of a possible entrapment. According to Petras, an elderly woman lived in the unit in question which was initial cause for the entrapment condition, but neighbors got her out before crews arrived. She's now back inside her home. Petras notes multiple departments responded as a precaution since the call came from an apartment complex.
Spartanburg mother of 4 returns home from 21 year prison sentence sharing encouraging message for community
on December 4, 2020 at 2:19 am
SPARTANBURG, SC (FOX Carolina) - A mother in Spartanburg county is home from prison after serving 21 and a half years of a 25 year sentence for drug possession. Mable tells us as a single mother of four - her family really stepped up to help her parent from behind bars. She has a very powerful message for the community about owning up for your mistakes and learning from them. It was at the Spartanburg court house where she was sentenced back more than two decades ago. They recall that day as an emotional one. Mable really expected for that day to go differently, but it might surprise you that she now believes that it all happened for a divine reason and she's using a painful, 21 year lesson to inspire others. Mable was 29. Her oldest son was 10. This heartwarming video displays the excitement of 21 long years of waiting for mom to come home. Stanley Hunter, son, says, "I had her and then I lost her. I long for that… I am looking for my mom and I am getting it for my grandmother… I’m getting it from my aunt, but it’s not my mama. So I prayed for my mom every day." Twenty one years of memories, pictures, messages back and forth from prison. That's how long Mable spent in prison on a drug trafficking charge. Using sugar to demonstrate, she says it was about this much of cocaine. Mable Leebey tells us, "I failed them. I put myself in that prison I never once said that I did not do what the people accuse me of doing. That is not… that is not... let’s not victimize me. No, the system just did not mistreat me, I just don’t agree with the amount of time that I was given." But she says she knows her children needed a present mother so she was there through phone calls, letters and eventually an online messaging system too. Juanita Carson, Mable's sister, says "it was never a thought that they would go into the system that was never going to happen." So now her family helping her adjust to the little things like Netflix, watching the movies she missed like the latest lion king and to her new identity, outside of those four walls. "I can only speak for incarcerated women because that is what I am," Mable says. Stanley whispers into her ear, "that’s what you were." Mable laughs... "that’s exactly right. That’s what I was." During this hour and a half encounter, you could feel the love and gratitude that this family felt. They have a lot to teach miss mable, but she says she has a lot to teach others as well and she's ready to do just that. <a href="https://www.gofundme.com/f/our-mama-is-coming-home?utm_source=customer&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=p_cp+share-sheet" target="_blank">Here is a Go Fund Me if you want to support her return home. </a>
