Spokane’s Homelessness Numbers Spark Debate

Fire Jumps Between Homes Overnight

A house fire erupted on Pattison Lake Sunday night, igniting a terrifying chain reaction that leapt from one home to a 30-foot tree and then into a neighbor’s property. Firefighters arrived within minutes of the 7:52 PM call, quickly mobilizing backup from Olympia and South Bay Fire Districts as flames spread rapidly. The main blaze was contained by 8:24 PM, but crews battled through the night to extinguish every ember — some still on scene Monday morning. Thankfully, no one was home at the origin, and no injuries were reported. Investigators are now probing the cause, while the incident serves as a chilling reminder of how fast fires can escalate — and why swift, coordinated response is critical to saving lives and property.

Seahawks Eye Long-Term Witherspoon Deal

The Seahawks are on the verge of locking down cornerback Devon Witherspoon with a long-term deal, building on their championship foundation and mirroring their big investment in Jaxon Smith-Njigba.

As training camp nears, this move could signal their serious commitment to sustained success. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
