Karl Velasco's mobile
home burned to the ground
Thursday, Feb. 3, in a
blaze so intense, two nearby
vehicles were damaged.
Velasco was not hurt. He
was away from home at the
time and was not expected to
return before press time.
lndian Valley Fire Chief
Jim Hamblin said the mobile
home was fully engulfed
when volunteers were paged
at lunchtime. Crescent Mills
volunteers and Forest Ser-
vice crews were also on the
scene.
All that remained by 3:30
p.m. was a pile of burnt tim-
bers and twisted, blackened
metal.
The neatly stacked piles of
firewood next to the home
were saved, as was the heat-
ing oil tank out front.
Hamblin thinks the fire
may have been an electrical
fire that started where a
crock pot was in use.
