A disabled man is dead after a fire at a mobile home in Bonney Lake.
East Pierce Fire crews arrived at the scene of the home in the 9100 block of 207th Avenue East sometime before 6 a.m. Wednesday.
Fire officials say five people lived in the home. One was transported to the hospital, one was treated at the scene and two people were uninjured. A man in a wheelchair was unable to escape and died in the fire, according to officials.
Video from the scene showed the mobile home fully involved in flames.
The flames have since been knocked down, but 207th is blocked between 92nd and 93rd streets while firefighters are at the scene.
