POST FALLS, Idaho--Fire investigators in Post Falls, Idaho are still hunting for whoever torched two vacant mobile homes.

It happened at the El Rancho Mobile Home Park on Saturday.  That park shut down for good earlier this summer.

Authorities say the fires are suspicious because there is no gas going into the two trailers and nothing big was plugged in.  Right now there’s no evidence of arson but there's proof it was started by someone.

Investigators say the fires’ mysterious cause has nothing do to with its owners, because the trailer wasn't even insured.  So officials are saying the fire is probably the work of vandals looking to take what was left behind at El Rancho.

KREM2 News tried to reach out to the trailers owners, but we could not get a hold of them, as was the case with the parks management company.
