Grover Beach Police release bodycam of officers rescuing man from a burning RV
By: The Grover Beach Police Department released body cam video of officers responding to a trailer fire just days after Christmas.
The fire broke out at Grand Avenue Mobile Home Park at about 5:30 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 27.
In the video, flames can be seen at the back of the trailer as the first officers arrive at the scene. Neighbors immediately alert police that a man is still inside.
Seeing that his exit was blocked by the flames, one of the officers breaks the trailer's window and pulls the man to safety.
Police say the man suffered only minor injuries.
According to the Five Cities Fire Authority, the cause of the fire was determined to be a portable propane heater being used inside the trailer.
Firefighters were able to prevent the flames from spreading to other trailers, although some neighboring RVs reportedly sustained some heat damage.
