The Hamilton City Post Office was all but destroyed by a fire that began shortly after 2 p.m. on Thursday, January 23.
With only a few exceptions, virtually every fire department in Glenn County responded to structure fire, including the fire departments of Orland, Artois, Capay, Ord Bend, Willows, and, of course, Hamilton City.

Glenn County Sheriff’s deputies and California Highway Patrol officers were on-scene to assist with traffic control, and Westside Ambulance personnel were present as a precaution.
The cause of the blaze, according to HCFD’s Hank Irick, is “currently under investigation.”
