I was walking back from class yesterday when I noticed everything was kinda hazy and there was a strong odor of something burning. I figured either someone was celebrating 4/20 a day late or there was a fire on the west side of town.
By the time I got back to my apartment my clothes were already pretty odoriferous, so I thought I might as well go take a few pictures of whatever it was that was going on.
Police had all roads in what seemed like a two-block radius closed off.
It turned out to have been a fire. It seemed as though it was pretty much over by the time I got there. It was a nice day so I took the opportunity to continue walking around taking more photos.
The garage in this photo was what was burning. No one was injured according to the local paper.
I kinda wonder if this woman was merely goosegogging as I was or whether she was waiting for someone to move the 6-inch fire hose out of her driveway.
Until yesterday I had no idea that Indiana police had bicycle patrols.
This is a fire truck parked on a train track. I guess at least it could have been used to put out its own fire if a train had happened to come through.
Panorama of some buildings nearby, just because I hadn’t put a panorama together in a while.
