NICE, Calif. – A Northshore home was destroyed in a Tuesday morning fire.
Firefighters were dispatched to the incident at a home on Lee Street in Nice just before 9:30 a.m. Tuesday, according to Northshore Fire Protection District Chief Jay Beristianos.
The mobile home with an add-on was fully engulfed by the time firefighters arrived, Beristianos said.
He said an adult female and two children were at home when the fire occurred.
Three Northshore Fire engines, two medic units and a support team responded. Beristianos said it took firefighters about 15 minutes to knock the fire down.
Radio reports indicated the blaze was controlled just before 10 a.m., with about two hours of mop up anticipated.
While firefighters were able to save some of the home’s contents, Beristianos said that for the most part the home was a total loss.
Beristianos said the incident originated from a cooking fire.
He said there were no injuries.
Red Cross was notified due to the need to offer housing to the family, he said.
Neighbors were reportedly gathering clothing and other items to help the displaced family.
