That's the second time that building caught fire. The first time was due to a lightning strike, IIRC.

I've done a lot of shooting at that range, including full-auto. Hope everyone at the scene is okay.

3. The roof collapsed due to heavy rain once, according to the story

Haven't heard if there are any injuries, but also hope everyone is OK.

13. One firefighter was hurt.

The 50 inside the building escaped safely. Thank God...it's a little more than a mile from where I work.

8. Aww, cheer up. Maybe the incinerated corpses of a few recreational shooters will be found.
