Four adults and one child were displaced from the two houses involved
At 12:12 p.m. Friday (July 25), the Vancouver Fire Department was dispatched to the report of multiple houses on fire at 5102 NE 121St Ave inside Oak Creek Mobile Home Park.
The first fire department unit arrived just four minutes later to find two homes and a large tree on fire along with a slow-moving brush fire to the West. Vancouver Fire had approximately 10 units with 28 suppression personnel on scene.
Additional units were requested for water supply redundancy as well as brush units and squads to handle the brush fire. The fire was deemed to be under control in just over forty minutes. No injuries were reported.
Four adults and one child were displaced from the two houses involved. The Vancouver Fire Marshal’s Office was on scene to investigate, and the American Red Cross was requested.
