Evergreen Store Fire

A month or so ago as we were about ready to head home for the day, we got word that traffic was backed up for miles. Given that there is only one road, it made for a pretty long commute. For a good portion of the drive, there was a girl walking along side the road who was either keeping pace with my car, or actually moving further ahead...that's how slow it was.


The reason for the gridlock was a store in Nuuuli had caught fire and burned to the ground. As you got closer, you could start to see and smell the smoke. The fire started several hours earlier, but it was still burning. In fact, even the next day as we drove back past the store on our way into work, we could see the debris continue to smolder. Turns out, it was arson, and I've been assigned the case to prosecute. We'll see how that goes...
