KANSAS CITY MetroRegion's BREAKING NEWS: Structure Fires In KC-MO - Ray County-MO

Structure fires at the two locations came in at virtually the same moment- 12:13 pm.

*** The KC-MO fire is at the "Hi-Line Motel" in the 15000 block of East U.S. 40 highway. There was a "fire in the walls" of one of the motel's bungalows there.
That fire's been brought under control with no reports of injuries as of this writing...

*** The other is a house fire in a Crystal Lakes subdivision- northeast of Excelsior Springs in the 31200 block of Mark Drive.
This is a working firefight right now in a "2-story single-family" house- with fire crews from Wood Heights- Excelsior and Lawson-MO on the attack.

Apparently there is some injury- as it's said an EMS crew is "looking over the homeowner" for unknown problems.

Two and a half hours later you are still the only outlet reporting on these fires.

Well X- the first was kind of a BS fire in the motel- doubt damage was more than a few thousand if that.

Second fire I doubt any of them heard. But they don't have the gear with the range I have.

That and $2 gets me a beer at Race Day...
