Fire investigators are trying to determine what caused a camper to go up in flames in White County. The fire on March 24 destroyed the camper and threatened several nearby structures.

On Friday afternoon, White County and Cleveland firefighters responded to a report of a structure fire in the area of Paradise Valley Road and Robinson Road, northwest of Cleveland. They arrived to find a fifth-wheel camper destroyed by fire and still burning.

Firefighters acted quickly to prevent the blaze from spreading to four nearby structures, public safety officials say

White County EMS evaluated one patient who sustained a superficial injury.

The State Fire Marshal’s Office and White County Fire Services are investigating.
