May 17, 2019 - A property off FM 2468 just near Loop 500 was the scene of several fires Wednesday, May 15, 2019, which involved a boat and two travel trailers and a lawn mower.
Center Fire Department firemen began fighting the fire after they were dispatched at 11:24am, dragging hoses to a location in the middle of the flaming objects.
Firemen were able to knock back the flames, putting out the boat and the campers in a short time.
According to the Center Fire Department the owner of the property, Bobby Adams, was working on his boat motor when a fire ignited. The fire then spread from the boat to both of the travel trailers.
It appeared the owner moved the boat from in between the trailers with a tractor; however, all had already caught on fire.
