Man in guarded condition after mobile home fire | Environment

A person was injured following a mobile home fire in Gautier around 4:30 Sunday morning.

According to Gautier fire marshal Charles Thornburg, the mobile home is located in a mobile home park just off of Highway 90 called Isle of Pines.

Thornburg said three people, who rent the trailer, were in the mobile home when the fire started. Smoke alarms went off and alerted them of the fire. They were able to get out and only a 39-year-old man had to be hospitalized for injuries.

When firefighters arrived, it took about 30 minutes to put the fire out.

The trailer is completely destroyed and burned out, Thornburg said. The victim was transported to a burn center in Mobile, AL. He was last listed in guarded condition.

Thornburg said the fire is being ruled an accident pending further investigation.
