Fire ripped through a single-wide mobile home early Monday morning on a dead end road just south of Oliver.
“It was fully involved when we got there so it was just a defensive attack, there was nothing we could save,” said Chief Bob Graham of the Oliver Fire Department. “I haven’t been back out there this morning but it is so far gone I don’t think we would be able to find a cause.”
It is believed a man and woman were living in the mobile home but we’re away for the weekend.
They were reportedly notified by RCMP who were also on the scene of the fire.
