7:56 PM: Seattle Fire has a sizable response arriving in the 9000 block of 10th SW [vicinity map], for what’s described as a “brush fire” dangerously close to a residence. First units arriving say it’s 10′ by 20′ and they’re downsizing the initial callout.
8:49 PM: The fire was out and all units cleared within a half-hour.
White Center has had an unbelievable number of fires this year. It’s a worrying pattern.
Been up to westcrest part ne t to P patch area. The grass now is over a foot tall. With the dry weather this will be the next hot spot. You would think our parks department would handle this. Every year we get the fires there.
House yard caught fire by these very same kids in car firing off fireworks at homes in West Seattle – they were driving around this neighborhood watching the fire trucks putting out fires. No police called back with any update or arrests. The kids saw us seeing them and took off, continued spraying homes with fireworks as they drove around. The fireman were helpless, while cops were worthless. This is urban decay. The rot is real.
Sorry, comment time is over.
