PARKER TWP — Flames late Saturday night destroyed an unoccupied trailer in this northern Butler County township.

Investigators did not immediately know what sparked the fire on East Eldorado Road shortly before 10 p.m. No one was injured.

“Some guy on Parker Pike saw a glow in the sky and drove out to see if he could find what was on fire,” said Darrel Hillwig, an assistant chief for the Bruin Volunteer Fire Department. “He found it.”

The man called authorities but by the time firefighters got there, it was too late.

“Everything was on the ground,” Hillwig said. “It was all burned out.”

Bruin and Parker firefighters were left only to shoot water on lingering hot spots. The property is secluded along a back road and the closest home was some distance away.

Fire officials did not know who owned the trailer or if anyone was still living there or using it.

“It looked like it had been converted into a hunting camp,” Hillwig said.

Firefighters did not know if there was furniture or other belongings in the trailer. The charred remains of a stove is all that was initially discovered in the debris.

It was not immediately known if there were any utilities connected at the property.

“There was a power line going to it,” Hillwig said, “but I don’t know if there was any power to it.”

Firefighters remained there until after midnight Sunday. A damage estimate was not available this morning.
