Yuma Fire Department and Rural Metro respond to palm tree fire

The Yuma Fire Department (YFD) responded to a fire that burned down a trailer Monday morning. The fire happened on Second Street, near Avenue A, in the backyard of someone’s home. YFD says there was one person home, but they were not injured.

After extinguishing the fire, YFD was able to confirm that the trailer did burn down, along with what appears to be a shed, but it is too badly damaged to tell.

Jennifer Garber, a neighbor, saw the fire and shared what she witnessed. “When my other client came outside, like, I got all ash like on the jackets and then, when we were driving off, that’s when we saw the smoke up in the air that it was she neighbors house,” Garber explained. YFD says the cause of the fire is still under investigation.
