Wildfire Near Lebanon Stopped in Minutes | Portland News
Description
A wildfire erupted near Lebanon around 2:38 PM, igniting in a mobile home and racing uphill through dry brush—making it tough for crews to contain. Firefighters from the Lebanon Fire District, Oregon Department of Forestry, and local teams battled the blaze as 18 residents were evacuated due to narrow roads and thick blackberry thickets. Within 20 minutes, they successfully stopped the fire from reaching a nearby structure. The evacuation was lifted by 5:36 PM, with crews staying until 8 PM to ensure no flare-ups. Thankfully, only the initial mobile home was lost; no other structures were damaged. The cause remains under investigation.
