Several LVFD members responded and assisted Washington County deputies with traffic control. On Thursday, Nov. 8, around 11 a.m., the department responded to a call on Highway 43 just south of the Tombigbee River bridge, where an automobile had overturned in the median. There were no injuries reported. The driver of the vehicle was Walter J. Bradley. Jackson Police and Washington County deputies also responded. Friday, Nov. 9, shortly before 2 p.m., a wreck was reported just north of Southwest Bank on Highway 43. The driver, whose name was unavailable by press time, reported having been run off the road by another vehicle which fled the scene. No injuries were reported.

A mobile home fire in Wagarville had the LVFD assisting the Wagarville Fire Department on Nov. 11. The trailer was totally engulfed when Wagarville arrived. Leroy firefighters helped keep the fire from spreading and becoming a woods fire.
