White County Public Safety Director David Murphy is cautioning residents that recent phone calls soliciting funds for firefighters are not coming from the county's fire and public safety divisions.
"We cannot advise as to whether this is a scam or not, however, we can assure the public that the White County Fire Department is not soliciting for any funds," he said.
Murphy advised that if there is any question concerning a donation or solicitation, contact the public safety office at 706-865-9500 before making a decision.
