Home catches fire in Lumby trailer park

A Lumby couple and their pets were forced from their home Sunday afternoon.  A fire broke out in the addition of a trailer in the Trinity Valley Trailer Park, in the 440 block of Mabel Lake Road. The fire was started from a woodstove in the home, said fire chief Tony Clayton. Damage was quickly contained by Lumby firefighters, but Clayton estimates the damage to be in the $10,000 range. The couple was relocated to a hotel for the evening. "At least it's still standing," said homeowner Leo Lavallee, who did not have insurance on the addition of the trailer.
