Four mobile homes were destroyed by a grass fire — but only one that was occupied — Wednesday afternoon, officials said.
Wind caught the flames from a controlled burn and sent fire into a densely wooded area near SE 29 and Pottawatomie Road about 2 p.m., Harrah Assistant Fire Chief Neal Young said.
The Country Haven Mobile Home Park, 3701 Pottawatomie Road, was evacuated as flames encroached upon the park from the north, he said.
Four mobile homes were destroyed and about 100 acres of grass and brush scorched, but only one injury was reported, Young said. A firefighter was treated for heat exhaustion at the scene.
