Dozens of motor homes destroyed in Canyon Lake fire
About 40 motor homes at a storage site in the Riverside County community of Canyon Lake were destroyed in a fire Wednesday afternoon.
The fire was reported about 2:30 p.m. on Loch Lomond Drive, according to the Riverside County Fire Department. The cause is under investigation.
One firefighter sustained non-life-threatening injuries. Department spokeswoman Jody Hagemann said that there are no known civilian injuries and that the motor homes all appeared to be empty.
“It’s looking a lot better; it’s not putting out the smoke that it did before,” she said of the blaze. “They’re going to be out there for a few hours doing mop-up.”
