A fire at the Regency Mobile Home Community Wednesday morning destroyed a storage shed and a vehicle.
The Hills Fire Department reports that they were dispatched just before 7:45 am on reports of a building fire in the 300 block of Cherokee Trail within the Mobile Home park. A detached shed and vehicle were reportedly on fire, with close proximity to another building.
An Iowa City Fire Department truck arrived first, as they were fueling up on the south side of Iowa City and were in close proximity to the fire.
The shed and the vehicle, a pickup truck, were a complete loss. The nearby residential structure sustained minor damage due to radiant heat from the fire. No residents were displaced, and no injuries were reported.
Crews from Lone Tree Fire and Rescue and the Riverside Volunteer Fire Department were also dispatched but cancelled enroute due to sufficient personnel and equipment on scene to extinguish the blaze.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
