First arriving crews from Station 5 (Hollins) found heavy fire and smoke showing one end of a vacant mobile home. Peters Creek Road was shut down for about an hour while crews had hoses stretched across the street to obtain water from a hydrant. The fire was controlled in about 20 minutes. There were no injuries. Two adjacent mobile homes did receive some heat damage and the occupants of one of those will be displaced due to the power being pulled as a safety precaution.
