Gainesville firefighters put out a small fire Thursday afternoon at a home off Thompson Bridge Road, Interim Gainesville Fire Chief Jerome Yarbrough said. No one was injured in the fire and it was contained to one room in the basement of the 1,500-square-foot structure at 439 Piedmont Road. Heat and smoke did damage throughout the house, though, Yarbrough said.
