Garage burns in Echo Lake neighborhood
Wednesday, October 10, 2012
Flames rose to the trees and a plume of smoke rose into the sky, as a metal garage in the back of a house on 190th NE in the Echo Lake neighborhood caught on fire and burned around 5:30pm on Tuesday evening.
Firefighters from Shoreline and Northshore responded to the fire and police blocked the streets, turning people away from a five block area around the fire.
According to neighbors, fire fighters hooked hoses to two hydrants but used foam to douse the fire.
There were no reports of injuries and the trees did not burn.

My Son, who works for, you wasn't allowed to get within two blocks to take pictures of it.
I question how a "metal" structure caught fire, obviously there had to be something else extremely volatile in it that caught fire.
Curious what it was, gasoline, a meth lab? What was going on that they didn't want news paper photographers within two city blocks of it?
A simple shed burning down just wouldn't seem to warrant that much concern.
