EVERETT, Wash. — An Everett firefighter is off the job and under investigation for allegedly trying to sell antiques from a store that recently burned down.
Now the owner of that shop wonders if the firefighter helped himself to her merchandise. More than a life was lost during a deadly fire last year in Everett. Some of the merchandise trapped inside the charred rubble has been showing up for sale on Craigslist, and the city is trying to determine if one of its own firefighters is to blame. The merchant whose items are showing up for sale doesn’t want to be identified for fear of retaliation.
“It’s devastating that we couldn’t claim our own items and that some people were,” she said.
