Large fire burns mobile home, trees in south Phoenix; requires animal control

Firefighters say a wind-driven fire in south Phoenix has burned a mobile home and several trees. 

The fire broke out just after 11 a.m. on June 19 near 10th Street and Vineyard Road.

When crews got to the scene, they battled the fire defensively. The fire was under control just before 12:30 p.m.

"It appears the origin of the fire was a large debris field with old wooden sheds and some construction equipment," the department said.

A stable of cows had to be corralled before firefighters could work on the flames. 

Animal Control was able to round up the bulls on a live stock trailer where they will be held until a fence that was destroyed can be rebuilt. 

Construction crews were working to rebuilding the fence as of Wednesday.

The owners of the mobile home have not been found.

No injuries were reported.
