FOR THE THIRD TIME IN THE LAST NINE DAYS a mobile home in Chesapeake, Virginia has burned.

The unoccupied trailer located in a mobile home court was first struck on July 22 when a room was burned out before the FF’s could extinguish it.  The next day, on the 23rd another small fire cropped up, but was quickly put out.

Early this morning, around 1:30 am a neighbor saw the trailer burning again and called the FD.  This time it was a total loss.

The former resident was evicted shortly before the first fire, but that was because he has been in jail on an unrelated charge and hadn’t paid his rent.  The trailer was scheduled to be hauled away this afternoon, but that plan may have to be altered.
