Probe Launched into Trailer Fire at Chesapeake Paintball Facility [Chesapeake, VA]

CHESAPEAKE, Va. – A trailer fire at Chesapeake Paintball has prompted an investigation by the Chesapeake Fire Department as officials work to determine its cause. The incident occurred on Wednesday afternoon, disrupting activities at the popular paintball facility.

Firefighters were dispatched to the scene at approximately 2:55 p.m. after receiving a report of a fire on the premises. Upon arriving just six minutes later, crews found a trailer engulfed in flames on the facility’s obstacle course. Firefighters acted swiftly, deploying multiple hoselines to contain and extinguish the fire. Their quick response prevented the blaze from spreading to nearby conex boxes, averting further damage.

The fire was controlled by 3:10 p.m., and the facility announced it would remain closed for the evening as cleanup and assessments continued. Thankfully, no injuries were reported, but the extent of property damage is still being evaluated.
