It was a hot time in Swinomish village Sunday.

And not in a good way.

Before 2:30 p.m. firefighters and law enforcement rushed to a van engulfed in flames in front of garages on the waterfront at the Swinomish fish processing plant on Moorage Way. The fire spread to another vehicle and a boat, said La Conner Hook & Ladder Chief Aaron Reinstra Monday.

Hook and Ladder and Fire District 13 crews put out the fire, with Swinomish Tribal Police securing the scene.

Plumes of black smoke just upland from the tribal pier on the west side of Swinomish Channel were clearly visible over the La Conner waterfront, an image that disrupted an otherwise quiet Sunday.

Sources told the Weekly News the fire’s source was electrical, though Reinstra could not confirm that Monday.

“We’re not 100 percent sure of the cause,” he said.

Reinstra said he understood one person may have been treated by Fire District 13 personnel for a light burn that did not require patient transport.

“The La Conner fire department did not treat anyone, but maybe District 13 did,” said Reinstra.

District 13 Chief Wood Weiss was unable to respond to a request for comment before the Weekly News went to press.
