Tonight three people are looking for a new place to live after their mobile home was destroyed by fire.

Columbia firefighters were called to the Colonial Village mobile home park early this morning.

When they arrived, the trailer was fully engulfed.

"Between 4 and 4:30 a.m, we got a call and said the fire was going on," said Deron Todd, a witness to the fire ,and a relative of the trailer's owner.

Todd went on to tell KRCG they believe a candle is to blame.

 The three occupants just moved in last week--nobody was injured in the blaze.

The fire department says the trailer is a complete loss and it did not have a working smoke alarm.
