Fire at Henderson manufactured home causes $30k damage
A manufactured house caught fire Friday night in the Henderson area, according to a Henderson Fire Department press release.
The arriving crew observed fire and smoke coming from a manufactured home located on Pontiac Place, near East Lake Mead Parkway and Mohawk Drive. The high wind conditions threatened to spread the fire to neighboring structures, but firefighters quickly attacked and extinguished the fire, preventing damage to other homes. Four engines, one truck and two rescue units responded to the fire, the release said.
The fire was reported by a neighbor who called 911. The home was vacant and used for storage. There were no injuries to bystanders or firefighters, according to the release.
A city of Henderson investigator and NV Energy assisted in securing the property. The fire’s cause is undetermined and losses are estimated to be $30,000, the release said.
