Fire crews are on the scene of a large fire that destroyed a trailer in Kennewick. Flames continued to swarm the property at the corner of South Gum Street and 27th Avenue.
Authorities say the fire actually started in the yard and quickly spread to the manufactured home on the property.
Firefighters managed to contain the blaze to the home and a few trees on the property--so the fire didn’t damage any other buildings, and luckily nobody got hurt.
