Veterans forced to evacuate a nursing home because of a Florida Panhandle wildfire were allowed to return home, officials said, but mandatory evacuations remained in place for two larger fires.
Firefighters continued to battle the 12,000-acre Bertha Swamp Road fire and the 841-acre Adkins Avenue fire, which have threatened homes and forced residents of at least 1,100 houses in Bay County, Florida.
The Adkins Avenue fire destroyed two structures and damaged another 12 homes late Friday.
