Debris Fire Defies Firefighters

Summary


A debris fire that started late Saturday promised to keep burning into today even as firefighters attack it around the clock with 1,400 gallons of water per minute. The fire, at McFarlane's Bark & Garden Center, 8806 N.E. 117th Ave., did not threaten any buildings, firefighters said Sunday.
