Raw video shows Sacramento firefighters working to extinguish a two-alarm fire that destroyed two mobile homes and damaged two others.

A fast-moving fire tore through multiple California mobile homes before firefighters were able to get the flames under control Tuesday.

Sacramento Fire Department crews responded to a two-alarm fire that broke out at a mobile home park at about 5 p.m., KXTV-TV reports. Two mobile homes were destroyed by the fire, while two others sustained damage.

“All four units were close together; that obviously had something to do with it," Battalion Chief Darin Snedeker told KOVR-TV. "The fact that it’s hot and windy out, and there was a lot of debris and combustibles in-between the four units."

Video footage captured by the department shows flames erupting through the roofs of some of the affected units. Thick, black smoke also can be seen filling the sky around the park.

No one was injured in the fire, and crews were able to get the flames under control shortly after 5:30 p.m.
