Selman said that when they arrived, the fire actually was in a fifth-wheel RV parked at the property. The owner was not identified.

Smoke was boiling out of RV, but firefighters had the blaze knocked down pretty quick, Selman said.

The fire reportedly started on the outside of the RV, but the cause is currently undetermined, he said.

The fire still is under investigation.
