UPDATE: Multiple Trailers Ignite In Webster
North Webster Fire Chief Jeremy Likens said two trailers were so badly burned in a late night fire an exact cause may never be known.
At about 11:30 p.m. Sunday night, a woman on B18 Lane at Kuhn Lake saw flames and called 911. An officer responding to B17 Lane reported a trailer fire was quickly spreading. A total of three trailers were involved.
The trailers are located off of SR 13 south of North Webster in the Mooring Campground. Likens said all are summer units and were unoccupied when the fire started.
Although he was not yet able to provide an exact address, Likens is meeting with one of the trailer owners today who was reportedly at the campground yesterday to ready his unit for the summer months. The fire started in that unit.
North Webster Fire Department called for Pierceton Fire Department’s tanker to assist in battling the fires. Likens said two of the trailers are a total loss and the third sustained minor damages.
Likens said he will have additional information later today. Fire crews were on scene for approximately 2 hours.
