MARYSVILLE — One person was injured after an RV exploded in a fire near Marysville, fire officials said.

Around 1 p.m., firefighters responded to “multiple explosions coming from vehicles” in the 11600 block of 81st Avenue NE, according to Snohomish County Fire Distrct 22.

Crews arrived to find a small RV and a motorhome on fire outside a house. The flames were spreading to the home and a nearby Jeep. Firefighters extinguished the flames coming toward the house, minimizing damage, before focusing on the RVs, fire officials said.

Medics treated one injured person at the scene. Multiple agencies assisted in the response.

The cause of the fire will be determined by the Snohomish County Fire Marshal’s Office.
