Fire investigators have determined a space heater was the source of a fire that destroyed a Forest River RV lamination plant along College Avenue on Monday night.

“Surveillance video revealed that a portable space heater was running after employees went home for the evening. The heater ignited some combustibles that were stored too close to it,” according to a statement from the Goshen Fire Department.

The department was called to the plant, located at 2870 College Ave., at 8:36 p.m. The factory produces laminated products for the r-pod line of travel trailers. The news release stated that the building was engulfed in flames when fire crews arrived.
