Bear Traps Found in Warehouse Fire

Firefighters battling a warehouse blaze in Pacific, Washington, uncovered a deadly surprise: live bear traps set to ambush anyone entering. The fire masked a sprawling illegal marijuana grow operation, complete with hazardous chemicals and power theft. Law enforcement secured the scene and raided the property, seizing over a thousand plants and evidence of a dangerous, coordinated setup. No responders were hurt, but the incident underscores the extreme risks emergency crews face when confronting hidden criminal enterprises. Authorities, including the ATF and DEA, are now investigating who set the traps and ran the operation, with charges potentially including assault, reckless endangerment, and federal crimes.

Their performance in OTAs could shape the Seahawks’ entire offensive identity this season — and the clock is ticking until Charbonnet returns.
