MARSHFIELD, WI (WSAU) — A trailer home is considered a total loss after a fire broke out in a bedroom on Tuesday afternoon.
Crews responded to the Marshfield Mobile Home Park at around 3:30 for a report of heavy smoke coming from one of the units. Two people were evacuated from the home, with one sustaining minor injuries. They did not require medical transport.
Crews knocked down the flames in about 20 minutes. The heaviest damage was sustained in the bedroom. Water, smoke, and heat damage were reported throughout the rest of the structure.
No additional homes were damaged and no firefighters were injured in the incident. The fire was caused by a child playing with matches.
The home was located in an area of the park that did not have easy access to a fire hydrant, forcing crews to bring in a relay pump unit.
