At about 8:30a.m., firefighters were called to both fires. The fire at Fields Landing was in a mobile home at Third and B. Firefighters quickly got on top of this one stopping it from destroying a nearby utility pole.

We have more on the fire off Broadway here.

UPDATE 10:08 a.m.: Jason Minoia captured these images as the fire was underway. He said, “Humboldt Bay Fire Department was here in about 17 seconds and then had the fire out a couple minutes later. Probably saved the power pole from falling. It was amazing to watch them work with so much courage, experience, speed, and grace.”
