CH411, E419, E413, R415, T417, G412, and G414 were dispatched at 12:09pm on Sunday to Tuttle Avenue in the Village of Fredericktown on the report of a trailer on fire. An engine from the Mount Vernon Fire Department was dispatched mutual-aid as well.
While fire units were enroute to the scene, additional reports from Fredericktown P.D. advised this was a fully involved camper on fire and not a trailer.
Upon arrival, the crew of E419 stretched an 1 3/4” attack line for suppression, and additional incoming units assisted with extinguishing the debris.
According to Chief Scott Mast, the fire was accidental in nature and started in the area of an electric space heater.
The FCFD had a total of 14 personnel respond to this call. Crews were back in service by 12:54.
