On April 2, 2025 at approximately 12:20 pm Humboldt Bay Fire units
responded to a first-alarm structure fire at the 5700 block of Humboldt
Hill Rd, Spruce Point Trailer Park on Humboldt Hill. Firefighters
arrived to find visible smoke pushing from the roofline of a single-
wide residential trailer. Crews quickly went to work and extinguished
the fire, successfully containing it to the kitchen area. However, smoke
damage was extensive throughout the rest of the residence.
The fire’s cause and origin were investigated by Humboldt Bay Fire
personnel. The source was determined to be a faulty electrical outlet in
the kitchen. The estimated damage to the structure is approximately
$10,000.
Fortunately, there were no injuries reported as a result of the fire. The
occupants of the trailer have been displaced from their home, and
Humboldt Bay Fire is working with the Red Cross and neighbors
within the trailer park to assist the family during this difficult time.
Humboldt Bay Fire would like to remind the community of the
importance of maintaining working smoke detectors in the home.
Smoke Alarms Save Lives.
Regular maintenance and testing can be the difference in providing
early warning in case of a fire. We also want to express our sincere
gratitude to the neighbors who assisted in this incident and to the Red
Cross for their support in helping the displaced family.
