Mid-morning fire destroys vacant home in Pacific

A mid-morning fire destroyed a small vacant home and damaged a travel trailer Wednesday morning in the 500 block of 3rd Avenue Southwest in the city of Pacific.

Nobody was hurt.

According to the Valley Regional Fire Authority, just before 7 a.m., several passersby reported seeing smoke and flames from a structure they originally believed to be a detached garage, but which the first firefighters on scene determined was a small vacant home.

The fire spread to nearby trees and a small travel trailer on the property, and while firefighters quickly contained the fire, the house could not be saved.

The American Red Cross is helping two adults.
