The body of a man was found inside the RV that was engulfed in flames
By the time Firefighters with Clark County Fire District 6 arrived a small RV-style trailer was already fully engulfed in flames. Four engines, two trucks and two battalion chiefs were tapped out to the blaze, which started next to a house in the 2000 block of 159th Street in an unincorporated neighborhood north of Vancouver.
Firefighters were unable to save the RV but were successful in stopping the fire from spreading to the nearby house and trailer. After the blaze subsided, first responders found the body of a man inside. The Medical Examiner and Investigators from the Clark County Fire Marshal’s office were called to the scene. An exact cause of death and the cause of the fire have yet to be determined.
