A firefighter and police officer Sean Potter douse flames in a burning motor home at South Fork mobile home park Tuesday, Aug. 19. Firefighters responded about 3:23 p.m. to the 3200 block of Main Street, to find heavy smoke and fire consuming roughly 50% of the structure and spreading to the adjacent mobile homes on either side, according to Sweet Home Fire and Ambulance District. A second alarm brought additional manpower and additional fire apparatus from mutual aid partners. Two of the three structures sustained heavy fire damage and the third sustained minimal damage to its interior. A total of 43 firefighters from Lebanon, Brownsville and the Oregon Department of Forestry responded, as well as police and Pacific Power personnel. The cause was not determined.
