According to the Moscow-Pullman Daily News website
Pullman fire crews are on the scene of an apartment house fire on True Street, the third fire reported early this morning.I just heard on KQQQ that the apartment fire on True behind Dissmores destroyed 9 units and injured one person.
According to initial reports, fire crews were dispatched to two garages on Pioneer Street that were reportedly burning about 4:30 a.m. today. A short time later, crews were dispatched to the apartment house fire near the intersection of True and Nye streets.
Fire crews from Pullman and Moscow remain on the scene.
UPDATE: KQQQ is reporting that the Pullman Fire Department is officially calling this arson. All fires are out at the moment. A state arson investigation team is heading to town from Walla Walla. Pullman police are securing the scenes and WSU police are taking over patrolling the town. Evan Ellis just stated that firefighters from Whitman County Fire District 12 saved April and Russ's business by putting out the car fire quickly. Pullman police are high alert looking for suspicious activity.

This is close to home - literally. The first two fires were just 3 blocks from my house. My son lived in that apartment building behind Dissmore's a few years back.
I want to be the first to blame George Bush and/or global warming.
