A family of five is safe after a fire Sunday night at the Suburban Acres Mobile Home Park.
Plain Township Fire Chief Derek Tenney said the call for the trailer fire at 3699 N. CR 175E, lot 139, Warsaw, came in shortly before 7 p.m. He believed a neighbor called in the fire.
All the family members living in the trailer - the husband, wife and three children - made it out safely with no injuries, he said. The American Red Cross was contacted to assist the family.
The fire was under control in about 45 minutes.
The trailer was deemed a total loss, but no surrounding structures were affected.
Tenney said the fire is still under investigation. “We’re trying to sort everything out,” he said.
Warsaw-Wayne Fire Territory provided a full assist. Also on scene were Lutheran EMS and the Kosciusko County Sheriff’s Office.
