A large fifth-wheel trailer was badly burned by fire early this morning, Dec. 27.

Fire crews were called to 415 Commonwealth Rd. at 12:10 a.m.

“First arriving crews reported a large fifth wheel type trailer in an RV park that was fully involved, including a propane tank that was venting, and nearby fences that were on fire as well,” says a Kelowna Fire Department news release.

Crews quickly knocked down the fire and prevented it from spreading but the trailer was a complete loss.

The owner was not home at the time of the fire and there were no injuries.

Firefighters from the Kelowna Fire Department were assisted by crews from Lake Country Fire Department.
