UPDATE: Big response, small fire at 4611 35th SW senior-living building

(Added: WSB photo)

6:38 PM: Seattle Fire has a “full response” on the way to 4611 35th SW, which is Brookdale West Seattle. The first units on scene haven’t found anything yet but have “occupants evacuating” as a precaution, per radio communication. More to come.

6:45 PM: SFD says this turned out to be paper towels that caught fire in a microwave at the senior-living building. They’re downsizing the response.

7 PM: Our crew at the scene has confirmed that the fire is out, no injuries were reported and everyone is back in the building.

    Hey…thanks SFD!  Nothing is more important than quick response to a senior building emergency.  I’m 75 and just beginning to realize how helpless age is making me.  Getting old is scary.  It can be a big effort just to get outside in the cold.  Love our responders.

Sorry, comment time is over.
