PUEBLO, COLO. -- Six people, including five children, were displaced by a fire Thursday afternoon, according to the Pueblo Fire Department.

Firefighters responded to the fire at about 3:45 in the 2400 block of East 4th Street. Officials said a mobile home was fully involved in flames when they arrived.

The fire was spreading to neighboring mobile homes. Those homes were saved by firefighters.

A second  vacant structure suffered just heat and smoke damage. A third structure received only minor damages, officials said.

The family of six had just moved into the home and were displaced by the fire.

Officials said the fire started in one of the back bedrooms. The cause remains under investigation.
