Authorities are investigating a suspected arson that occurred in north Centralia last night.
Firefighters called at 9:55 p.m. to the 300 block of Kearney Street found a 30-foot travel trailer fully involved in flames at the back of the fenced property, according to Riverside Fire Authority.
The fire was threatening adjacent houses and another trailer, but they managed to put it out before it spread, according to Fire Chief Jim Walkowski.
Nobody was hurt and nobody was inside it when it happened, but police are looking for the individual who used to live in the trailer, according to authorities.
He is a person of interest, Centralia Police Department Sgt. Brian Warren said this morning.
Walkowski described the damage as significant.
The cause is under investigation by the police and fire department Joint Fire Investigation Team, according to the chief.
