PLAINS – Flames consumed a small trailer across the street from the Plains Veterans of Foreign Wars building, early Wednesday afternoon.

By the time Plains City Fire arrived, the structure was already partly burned through, with large holes and flames actively lapping from holes in the sides. It looked as though the fire stared in one end and was working its way through the trailer.

One fire truck responded, tapping a fire hydrant to combat the blaze. Flames quickly began to be extinguished as firefighters sprayed water on them, covering the area in clouds of steam and smoke.

The cause of the fire is still being investigated.
