A fire at a mobile home in Wamac Wednesday afternoon was confined to a bathroom.

Centralia Fire Protection District Chief Ross Boshera says the fire at the mobile home in the Brookside Mobile Home Park appears to have started from an unattended electric hair trimmer.  It then spread into some diapers.

Boshera says most of the smoke was also confined to the bathroom, with just minor non-damaging smoke in the rest of the home.

The fire call came in at 3:51 Wednesday afternoon, with firemen on the scene for 45 minutes.
