I am guessing 90% of the fires I go to are in vacant buildings. I guess it’s better than seeing people lose all their things. Ho Hum

Nice. I’d have to agree with you there Ed. Vacants are better as long as no ffs are hurt.

Usually they are ruled arson, this one for me is a hard call. The fire was isolated near the power to the house from the pole and looked to be mostly exterior. This one may have been accidental, but I honestly don’t know

I understand there are a lot of vacant houses in Gary but why? It’s hard to process why there would be so many vacant structures.

You have the city that never sleeps, and then you have Gary, the city that never stops burning…

A large factor in the cities decline is the loss of the steel mills and of course the huge tax increase about 3 years ago. People who were paying 500-600 dollars a year in taxes got a triple increase in one year. It also doesn’t help that Gary was the murder capital of the U.S. for like 4 years straight
