A mobile home fire in northeast Reno near the border with Sparks has sent one woman to the hospital.

An investigation is underway after a mobile home fire in Sun Valley early Monday morning. 

An investigation is underway after an early Sunday morning fire on Sherman Lane in Carson City. 

Fire crews say it took 17 firefighters about 20 minutes to bring the fire under control.

The fire was contained to the mobile home and no injuries were reported since the one person evacuated before crews arrived on scene.

Crews say the resident was offered temporary housing assistance through Red Cross but declined.

Upon arrival, neighbors were attempting to extinguish the fire with a garden hose.

62-year-old Lorene Vagts of Reno was pronounced dead at the scene on April 21. 

TMFR says a minor fire started with the heater and air conditioning unit in the home.
