RANKIN COUNTY, MS (WLBT) - Fire completely destroyed a mobile home in Rankin County Monday night.

It happened on Barefoot Trail, north of Pelahatchie.

Fellmin said he is worried about his 16 and 12-year-old sons no longer having clothes or anything for school.

Donations can be made to the Red Cross or Pelahatchie Police Department. Just call 601-854-5223.
