BOONE COUNTY, Mo. (KMIZ)
Boone County Fire Protection District crews took a defensive position at a structure fire due to a lack of a nearby water supply at North Perche Road and Rock Hollow Road.
Flames and heavy smoke were seen coming from the North and West side of the trailer home and around 2:15 p.m. as the fire began to shoot through the roof of a double-wide home with a basement.
Watch a replay of the scene.
Tanker trucks brought water to the scene as crews worked to keep a propane tank water down on the north side of the house.
Boone County Fire Protection District provided one tanker truck and one brush truck.
