    Do we know if anyone was harmed?

      Sorry, but we cannot 100% confirm yet, thats why its not listed…but hopefully not.

      We didn’t see any signs of anyone being injured, and the Fire Service would generally let us know that upon our asking, and they didn’t say anything to that effect.

      Hopefully we get some confirmation on that later today…

    The last time I found a burning vehicle in that area in the early 70′s there was a body not far away. Just my thoughts, thats all. Then again, maybe just another stolen vehicle. Many senarios…….(sp)…..
