Two people are dead after a trailer fire in Snohomish County.

Crews with Snohomish Regional Fire & Rescue were called to respond to a “fifth-wheel trailer” fire Wednesday evening at 212th Street Southeast in Woodinville.

A large column of smoke was visible from approximately a mile away. When fire crews arrived, they saw that the fire was near a large propane tank.

Because the trailer was fully engulfed in flames, firefighters were unable to enter and began extinguishing the fire from the outside. Other obstacles they faced were overhead power lines, no nearby hydrant, and the risk of the fire spreading to nearby brush and trees.

Once they put the fire out, firefighters found two people dead inside the trailer. One body was near the front of the trailer while the other was in the back.

The cause of the fire is under investigation. A medical examiner will determine the identity of the victims and their causes of death.
