“[I lost] everything I owned.”
These were the words of Larry Chaney, posted on Facebook at about 4:46 a.m. on Saturday, Dec. 24, just hours after a fire destroyed his trailer in northeast Willows.
At approximately 10:45 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 23, the Willows Fire Department was dispatched to a report of a structure fire at 860 North Plumas Street.
At first, it was described as an outbuilding that was fully involved, but it soon became apparent that it was a trailer.
At 10:54 p.m., the Orland and Artois Fire Departments were called to render mutual aid.
Then, at 11:17 p.m., the Bayliss Fire Department was contacted for its water tender.
At 1:08 a.m. on Saturday, the Willows Fire Department posted on its Facebook page, “All Willows Personnel released, incident terminated.”
About two hours later, Larry Chaney posted on a Willows Facebook page that it was his trailer that burned.
At 4:46 a.m., he posted that he lost everything he owned, then he added, “And [it] looks like someone did it intentionally.”
He ended his post with, “Hopefully my trail cam is salvageable to get [the] SD card from it.”
