CABAZON, CA — A fire that started in a single-wide trailer on the south end of Cabazon quickly spread to surrounding brush Wednesday, charring roughly five acres as crews deployed to the location.
The non-injury blaze was reported at 1:40 p.m. Wednesday near the intersection of Lemon and Lime streets, less than a mile south of Interstate 10, according to the Riverside County Fire Department.
The agency said multiple engine crews were sent to the location and encountered a trailer fully engulfed, with flames moving at a fast clip to the east, not immediately threatening any homes.
Two Cal Fire air tankers arrived a short time later and initiated runs on the brusher, according to reports from the scene.
The trailer apparently was not occupied.
Evacuation orders did not appear imminent.
There was no immediate word regarding how the fire may have started.
