Thanks to a reader for sending the photos. Just yesterday we learned of a car fire on Hiatt Place. These things really seem to come in waves. This one occurred Monday night around 6pm. The reader writes:
“Looked like an arson because the car was parked.”

As we’ve seen in the past, sadly car fires (intentional or not) happen from time to time. The reader who sent me the photos writes:
“Found this waiting for me when I arrived at home this evening in the parking lot behind the Safeway in the 3800 block of Georgia Ave. I have no idea what happened, but whatever it was, it happened either today or yesterday. You’d certainly like to think this was some kind of accident, but you have to think someone was getting rid of a stolen car.”
What do you guys think – was the car stolen? Perhaps I am a bit naive but why do people torch stolen cars, to get rid of any evidence?

A reader sent in this photo of a van on fire, Thursday night, on the 100 block of Varnum St. Insane. Incidentally, I just read in the Post how car and house fires are on the rise as people can’t afford payments. I’m not sure how this fire started but it is an incredible sight. Check out another shot with a firefighter after the jump.

Thanks to Laurie for alerting me and sending me the photo of this van that caught fire on New Hampshire and 7th. It happened today at 5:10pm but Laurie said she could still hear a fire truck at 5:30. I wonder how the van burst in to flames like that.
