OUTLOOK, Wash. — A fire destroyed a 46-foot motor home Friday afternoon in Outlook.

The fire was reported about 3:40 p.m. in the 2000 block of Van Belle Road, according to a fire dispatcher. Granger and Outlook fire crews responded to the scene and extinguished the fire about 4:30 p.m., before it could spread to nearby structures and a 1957 Chevy attached to the home.

Fire officials believe the blaze was caused by an engine malfunction. The damage is estimated at about $50,000. No injuries were reported.
