No one was injured when a mobile home caught fire in Joshua Tree Wednesday morning. County Fire Battalion Chief Mike McClintock said crews from Joshua Tree, Yucca Valley, and Yucca Mesa were called to the 6100 block of Valley View about 10:15 a.m. where they found smoke showing from a double-wide mobile home. Firefighters found a room and its contents on fire, with flames extending into the attic space above. The blaze was knocked down in about 15 minutes. McClintock said the home was under renovation at the time of the fire, and the cause appears to be accidental.
