A kitchen fire destroyed a mobile home in Silver Springs early Monday morning.
Marion County Fire Rescue units were called to a home in the 5600 block of NE 165th Terrace Road in Silver Springs at 1:02 a.m. after the caller reported that his neighbor’s home was on fire.
Crews arrived on the scene at 1:11 a.m. and encountered a working fire that had consumed 75% of the home. According to MCFR, the residents of the home self-extricated from the home.
Additional emergency personnel arrived on the scene a short time thereafter and began deploying multiple hose lines to attack the fire.
The fire was eventually called under control at around 1:53 a.m. No injuries were reported to firefighters or the occupants, according to MCFR.
The cause and origin of the fire remain under investigation.
