VIDEO: A mobile home in Mead was destroyed in a fire Sunday afternoon which sent smoke high into the sky that could be seen miles away in north Spokane.
Officials with Spokane County Fire District 9 (SCFD 9) say the cause of the fire is still under investigation, adding that no one was hurt in the fire. Neighbors said the mobile home and its lot appeared to be vacant for quite some time.
Dramatic videos sent to NonStop Local by viewers on Sunday show flames shooting out of the single-wide mobile home located near the intersection of Farwell Rd. and Wilson St. in Mead, and a column of black smoke billowing in the air. When firefighters arrived on scene around 4 p.m., they found more than just structure fire.
"Some of the grass, brush and trees surrounding the structure were also on fire," SCFD 9 Assistant Chief Nathan Jeffries said in a Monday interview.
