Firefighters were called around 2:55 a.m. about heavy smoke and flames showing at the car wash on North Escondido Boulevard near West Mission Avenue
Police and fire officials are trying to figure out what sparked a three-alarm fire at an unoccupied Escondido car wash early Thursday that destroyed the building.
Because of the intensity of the fire, the first crews called for additional resources and took a defensive position, trying to keep the fire from spreading. “The property management had fenced it off and boarded it up in hopes of keeping it free of people,” he said. The property manager told Batson that “it was a daily challenge” to keep the property secured.
A formal damage estimate has not yet been compiled. “The property is basically a complete loss,” Batson said.Padres feel Peter Seidler’s presence after beating Dodgers, securing playoffs with a triple playSole Navy fuel ship serving San Diego-led strike group in Middle East suffers damage
