I pull up to the scene, looking through the semi-dark at the still burning apartment building. I park and get out of the car, walking over to the fire chief, who's standing near thr front of the building.
I hold up my badge. "What happened here?" I follow his gaze up to the flames coming from the roof.
"My boys went in and found a little girl tied up to a radiator."
"Oh." What else is there to say to something like that?
I stand and watch with the chief as his firefighters slowly put out the fire.
Then I'll ask questions.
