A rich vein of gold was discovered in southwest Yuba City - and a burglar or team of burglars was busily mining it, authorities said. Seven houses were hit, and one victim lost more than $10,000 worth of jewelry, Sutter County Undersheriff J. Paul Parker said Friday.

All the victims were East Indians. Most of the loot was gold jewelry - bracelets, earrings and bangles. In all but one of the cases, burglars found an unlocked window or door during daylight hours when no one was home, he said. Cash and electronics also were taken “if they were handy,” the undersheriff said.

Fireplaces and wood-burning stoves have caused "probably at least half a dozen fires in Yuba City in November," said Jim Mathews, chief fire safety inspector for the City of Yuba City.

On Thanksgiving Day, heat from the metal flue of a wood-burning stove in a Sutter County home led materials in the roof to ignite and a fire to spread across the attic and through a bedroom ceiling. Mathews said there have been several chimney fires locally this season, although they did not cause major fires.

Pushed by north wind gusts up to 30 mph, a grass fire quickly got out of hand Friday and consumed at least four residences and a number of outbuildings north of Wheatland.

The fire briefly threatened the Plumas Brophy Fire Department's Station One on Dairy Road. Across the street, a one-story residence and a mobile home at the northwest corner of Dairy and Highway 65 were destroyed. The mobile home apparently was vacant, Stineman said.

Eva Woodard could only watch in disbelief as the house she once called home burned down to its foundation Thursday night. “It’s unbelievable ... There is nothing left of the house. It’s burned to the ground,” Woodard said.

“The fire had already vented itself through a front window, and a quick walk around (the house) showed it was burning through the back of the house. So about half the first floor of the house was involved at arrival,” said Sutter County Fire Chief Dan Yager.
