From our sister site The White Center Blog:
Puget Sound Fire is reporting that units were on the scene Wednesday morning, July 8, 2020, of a second alarm commercial fire in the 10700 block of 16th Ave SW in White Center.
This building once housed Yaringtons Funeral Home, and is located at 10708 16th Ave SW (map below).
The funeral home has been closed and vacant for a while, and a small fire broke out there in April.
Firefighters say that this was a defensive attack from the exterior.
No injuries were reported, and the cause of the blaze is unknown at this time.
