Corbett Barn Fire (Photo) - 08/14/19

Corbett Barn Fire

UPDATE

On Friday August 9th, Corbett Fire District 14 responded to a barn fire on E. Larch Mountain Rd. On arrival, crews found a 30 foot by 50 foot pole building heavily involved in fire.

Bystanders reported a large explosion before our arrival and there was another large explosion when we arrived.

The fire was contained within an hour by 14 Corbett Firefighters with assistance from Gresham Fire.

The fire investigation discovered an illegal Butane Hash/Honey Oil (BHO) processing lab at the point of the fire origin.

There were indications that the lab was operating at the time of the fire and the occupant left the scene prior to our arrival.

These labs are highly dangerous and have been the cause of several fires/explosions throughout Oregon in recent years.

Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office is leading the investigation.
