A fire that erupted Friday adjacent to a mobile home in Mead Valley threatened the RV and several outbuildings before it was stopped.

The blaze was reported about 2:30 p.m. in the 20000 block of Markham Street, near Misty Lane, according to the Riverside County Fire Department. A dozen engine crews were sent to the location and immediately deployed to protect the single-wide trailer from a roughly quarter-acre fire.

Two to three sheds were also in the path of the flames, but crews prevented all of the structures from being damaged. The fire was fully contained at 2:15 p.m.

The cause was under investigation.
