There’s a $10,000 reward out for the arson fire that injured a 50-year-old man Thursday on NW 84th Street.
Officials are urging neighbors to be on the lookout for suspicious people and to take steps to protect their property. If you haven’t already gotten a flier on your doorstep about steps you can take, you will soon.
Firefighters are dropping them off at houses and businesses from Aurora Avenue North to 8th Avenue NW and from North 70th to well into Greenwood. Firefighters from other stations have been helping, including some today from Station 35 on Holman Road. Other stations will be helping out this weekend, according to Station 2 firefighter Eric Jensen, who’s helping out at Station 21.
Here’s a map of the four fires that the Seattle Fire Department says may be the work of one or more arsonists:
Fire investigators are also looking at some fires in the University District.
People are encouraged to report suspicious activity to the Arson Alarm Hotline number at 1-800-55-ARSON. “Somebody somewhere, knows something,” Jensen said Friday night.

Can’t we do better than $10,000?

Ole Clunker I think you must mean the OK Corral and an hour later the abanded house up on 103rd and Greenwood. There was also a dumpster fire the night before behind the Subway at 103rd and another after that about a day or so in the same dumpster.

$10,000 would buy a lot of spray paint and skate boards.

Hope they find this guy - our house is pretty much in the center of all those points on the map!

Someone should come forward and do the right thing. Rat on the vandal/arsonists.
