🕯🌳Hmmmmmm. 👁⚖
I don’t care about the building, I am just happy no firefighter’s and police officer’s were injured. If it was arson I sure hope they catch the fire bug.
Arson is a terrible crime. If the trailer was occupied this should be treated as attempted murder.
Trailer was empty and in 2 sections. Was stored on the lot.
The mobile trailer was located on Humboldt Redwoods (Palco) “Kenmar/Newburg” property. The mobile home has been there for at least 10 years and was owned/stored by a local contractor.
If it was the intent to get rid of it? , the fire did it. If perhaps homeless caused it (?), then the fire did its damage and helped in the reduction of material mass.
The fire shouldn’t have been put out, but allowed to burn until out. There was no threat to nearby structures.
Gotta change FD policies.
I don’t think 95% of the community knew the trailer was there. NOW THEY DO KNOW!
🕯🌳I knew,and thanks for pointing it out,there are other city’s flaws that they need to be reviewed. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸⚖
Thank you Fortuna fire for protecting the community <3 we appreciate you!
Ditto
Ha Ha Wildwood burns down… They have been ripping people off maybe somebody got pissed when they junked their generator and then sold it back to their neighbor… How do you like that?
What?
🕯🌳Didn’t complain about the firefighters who do a great job, just the city. 📡👁
