A fifth wheel was a total loss following a late-night fire on Monday.

Lieutenant Justin Anspach of Douglas County Fire District No. 2 said at about 11:15 p.m. firefighters responded to the fire in the 3300 block of Military Road near Lookingglass Road. Lieutenant Anspach said the fire threatened another travel trailer and a structure believed to be condemned. The fire is being investigated as possibly being arson, as there was a report that a woman set the fifth wheel on fire.

The fire was brought under control quickly with the other structures being protected. Fire District No. 2 was assisted by Lookingglass Fire. Units left the area just after 12:10 a.m. Tuesday.
