Mother, Son Lose Home In Anaheim House Fire

ANAHEIM, CA — An Anaheim mother and her adult son lost their double-wide mobile home in a fire, authorities said Tuesday morning.

Firefighters and police responded to the Western Skies Mobile Home Park in the 2700 block of West Lincoln Avenue near Sunset Via about 10 p.m. Monday and located the mobile home fully engulfed in flames, Sgt. Daron Wyatt of the Anaheim Police Department reported. Three nearby cypress trees burning when firefighters arrived.

The fire started inside a bedroom and spread to the rest of the structure, Anaheim Fire & Rescue Lead Investigator Mark Dunn said.

Anaheim fire crews, with the assistance of the Orange County Fire Authority, were able to extinguish the flames and a knockdown was declared at 10:45 p.m., Wyatt said.

The woman was taken to a hospital for an issue unrelated to the fire, Dunn said.

A mobile home near the fire suffered minor heat damage. The structure was deemed uninhabitable and the Red Cross was called in to assist a woman and her adult son who were displaced by the fire, Dunn said.

The cause of the fire remained under investigation as of this report.
