SEEN FIREFIGHTERS COMING AND
GOING.

GOING. IT'S A LITTLE DIFFICULT TO TELL
IF ANY DAMAGE HAS BEEN DONE TO
EITHER ONE OF THOSE BUILDINGS.
THEY DEFINITELY HAVE FIRE CREWS

WAS LINED WITH FIREFIGHTERS AND
THE ACTUAL PADDY WAGON.
POLICE TOOK A LOT OF PEOPLE TO

KNOW THE EXACT NUMBER AND NAMES
OF THOSE ARRESTED.

I DON'T THINK WE CAN SEE IT,
