       A North Las Vegas family was displaced Wednesday after a fire
       tore through their double-wide mobile home near Carey Avenue and
       Belmont Street.
       North Las Vegas Fire spokesman Cedric Williams said crews
       responded shortly before 3 p.m. to the fire at 3216 Glendale
       Ave. and crews found the home to be engulfed in fire. Due to the
       conditions inside, firefighters were forced to attack the fire
       from the outside, Williams said.
       Six people were in the home at the time of the fire and one was
       treated for possible smoke inhalation but refused to be taken to
       the hospital, Williams said.
       Police closed Glendale between Wilkinson Way and Belmont Street
       and evacuated homes in the immediate area. Residents would
       likely be able to return to their homes during the late
       afternoon, Williams said.
       The Red Cross is assisting the displaced family. An estimated
       value of damage done to the home was not immediately available,
       but the home was considered a total loss.
