According to an NAFD news release, firefighters from NAFD and Kingman responded at 1:30 a.m. Thursday, Aug. 11 to a fire in the 2100 block of E. Packard Avenue in Kingman.
Although firefighters “aggressively attacked” the fire and protected surrounding structures, the abandoned house was lost.
Upon arrival, firefighters found a heavily involved attached garage/carport with fire extending to the doublewide manufactured home. A second alarm was requested due to the exposures of the adjacent structures.
There were no reported injuries and no utilities inside the building.
According to law enforcement, the house has recently had criminal activity that is under investigation by the Mohave County Sheriff’s Office.
NAFD said the fire is suspicious and the cause is under investigation.
