fire

The old Masonic Lodge building on the corner of 7th Street and Olive was lost to fire today. Mimi was able to get some photos to share.

These photos and videos were taken during the fire on Monday, July 7, 2014 that destroyed the old Masonic Lodge at the corner of West 7th and Olive Street in Texarkana, Texas.

Last night (5/1) just before midnight Texarkana Texas Firefighters responded to a call of a truck on fire behind the Sonic location on New Boston Rd., and when police arrived they placed a man in custody.

On Sunday afternoon a little after 2 p.m., did you see a huge billowing cloud of smoke rising up from the trees behind Arista Apartments? My husband and I realized something was amiss when we saw several fire and emergency vehicles arrive on Gin Road shortly after the smoke started to rise into the sky.
