No one was injured after an electrical fire early Thursday morning at a northeast valley mobile home park.

The fire was reported just after 3 a.m. at a home in the Carefree mobile home park, 3325 S. Nellis Blvd., near Cheyenne Avenue, Clark County Fire Department Deputy Fire Chief Jeff Buchanan said.

Crews arriving at the scene found smoke and flames visible from the outside of the home, Buchanan said. Firefighters had the blaze under control by 3:21 a.m.

The fire was caused by an electrical issue with the refrigerator inside the home, Buchanan said. At 6 a.m. it was unclear if anyone was displaced by the fire.
