A car with an attached trailer caught fire shortly after 1 p.m. Monday on the 34800 block of Bob Wilson Drive in San Diego, according to federal fire officials.
Everyone inside the trailer got out safely, officials said.
Officials did not request extra help from San Diego Police. One San Diego Fire-Rescue crew was sent to the scene.
