Upscale Housing Development Torched in Maryland
As many as a dozen homes in a new housing development burned down early Monday morning, and Maryland fire investigators suspect arson. The upscale Hunters Brooke subdivision in Charles County was still under construction; home prices ranged from $400,000 to $500,000, WTOP radio reported. As many as 100 firefighters were called out to fight the house fires. Environmentalists opposed construction of the 300-home enclave. According to WTOP, the Sierra Club said the construction would "destroy a forest adjacent to state-preserved wildlands and severely degrade one of Maryland's largest magnolia bogs." Sounds like a Eco-Terror arson job to me. EFL doesn't always announce their work with a press release, but it's got their fingerprints all over it. |
