KENNEWICK – One person was treated and transported for minor burns following a doublewide mobile home fire Wednesday on the 2900 block of West Seventh Avenue in Kennewick.

The Kennewick Fire Department was dispatched at 1:24 p.m. and arrived on scene in just under four minutes. Firefighters were able to contain the fire in a single bedroom. The fire was extinguished within nine minutes of the first crew arriving on scene.

No firefighters were injured.

Chief Chad Michael said smoke and heat damage that occurred in other areas of the mobile home will prevent it from being occupied until after restoration work is completed.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.
