Last night Littleton Firefighters were dispatched to a structure fire at 8201 South Santa Fe Drive. A man soldering under a mobile home sparked a fast moving fire that he attempted to control with a garden hose. After he was forced out the fire department was called. First due Engine 16 found smoke showing from the crawl space and pulled a 1.75" line. Heavy fire conditions were seen under the trailer and coming up through the floor. E11 made a long 5" supply lay and advanced a backup line side. As crews opened up fire was found in the walls and attic space. The flames self vented around an air cooling unit on the roof prompting a withdraw. Companies continued to fight the fire from outside the doors and from the gable ends. The man working under the home was transported emergent for burns and smoke inhalation.
