Two vehicles were destroyed and a third badly damaged by fire at a senior living complex in Oakdale early Thursday morning.

The fire started just after 1 a.m. at the Oak Haven Senior Apartments on East A street, according to the Stanislaus Consolidated Fire Protection District.

Two engines and a Battalion Chief responded to the fire. The first arriving crews found the vehicles fully engulfed under a carport at the complex. The carport was also damaged.

Lt. Dave Hutchinson, supervisor of the Stanislaus Regional Fire Investigation Unit, said the fire started in a 2006 Ford SUV and spread to the other two vehicles. Due to the extent of the damage, a cause could not be determined, he said.
