The fire broke out about 11:25 a.m. on a property at Blackfoot and Columbia roads, according to San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department logs.
The fire severely burned a mobile home and three vehicles at the site.
Firefighters declared it knocked down about an hour later.
One person was taken to a hospital with burns, sheriff’s department spokeswoman Amber Hutton said. An update on the victim’s condition was not available.
