(JEFFERSON, Ore.) - Firefighters from Jefferson Fire District were called to a fully involved travel trailer fire at 8:53 AM this morning. A person inside the trailer received minor injuries.

Fire Spokesperson Elaine Parrott says the fire totally destroyed the older model trailer that was located behind Sprayfoam Inc. at 37545 Century Drive.

"Combustibles too close to the trailer's heating source was determined to be the cause of the fire," Parrott said.

She says firefighters managed to prevent the blaze from spreading to the nearby Sprayfoam business.

According to Fire Chief Don Bemrose, the occupant was in the trailer at the time of the fire and escaped with minor burns to his hands.

No other injuries were reported.
