Oakland Fire Department crews responded to a fire in a lived-in RV on West Grand Avenue and Willow Street near Raimondi Park on Saturday morning.

The fire broke out in an RV shortly before 7:30 a.m., and spread to a neighboring RV, according to Michael Hunt, public information officer for the fire department.

No one was injured.

Some businesses in the area experienced power outages, though, after the fire caught a power pole and burned through electrical wires overhead, Hunt said.
