2 mobile homes damaged by fire in Bradys Bend Twp.

BRADYS BEND TWP, Armstrong County — No one was hurt in a blaze that damaged two mobile homes in the 700-block of Kaylor-Petrolia Road late Tuesday morning.

James Hillwig, chief of Sugarcreek Township Volunteer Fire Department, said firefighters arrived at 742 Kaylor-Petrolia Road shortly after the fire was reported around 11 a.m.

Hillwig said when his company arrived one of the mobile homes on the property was “fully involved” and catching a second mobile home on fire.

Hillwig said firefighters determined no one was home at the time, because there was no working vehicle at the property. Officials were still, however, trying to verify the homeowner’s identity and contact them.

Hillwig said the cause of the fire was undetermined and a fire marshal was called in to investigate. He was expected to arrive on the scene Tuesday afternoon.

The blaze, which Hillwig said involved one trailer that appeared to have been used mainly for storage, and another that was apparently being lived in, drew firefighters from six fire companies from Armstrong and Butler counties.
