Salina Firefighters battled a mobile home fire Wednesday morning.
Crews were called to 812 Otto at around 10:45. The back of the mobile home was fully engulfed when first responders arrived.
Salina Fire Marshal Roger Williams says that a mother and three children were home when the fire started. The family was able to safely exit the home.
Williams says that an investigation determined that the fire was started by a faulty electrical outlet in a back bedroom.
The home is a total loss.
There were no injuries.

This is a bad deal one that could have been adverted if she had fixed the problem. Even worst the paper reported she owned the trailer but did not have it insured. There is no excuse for being stupid.

There has been a fund established at Catholic Charities, for this family. If anyone would like to make a financial contribution to the mother and three children, they may do so at Catholic Charities. All money received, will go directly to the family.
