WOODINVILLE, Wash. - Four large homes are burning at a "Street of Dreams" model home development north of Woodinville. Snohomish County District Seven Chief Rick Eastman tells KING 5 that a sign saying ELF was left at the scene.

ELF or Earth Liberation Front has claimed responsibility for other arsons, including one at the University of Washington in 2001 for which a woman is now on trial in Tacoma.

A massive fire burned at least four large homes at a "Street of Dreams" model home development north of Woodinville early Monday.

No injuries have been reported in the three-alarm fire, which started around 4 a.m. Monday.

Eastman says some of the homes were still under construction. He said one is a total loss and two homes are substantially damaged. He says fires also were set at a total of six homes.

Eastman also said that the fires are suspicious because they were set in multiple places in separate homes.

The Street of Dreams is an annual showcase of luxury homes in the Seattle area. The latest development is off Highway 522 at Echo Lake Drive.

Eastman says police and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives are investigating.

sorry about the double.

[BenLurkin]

Makes me want to puke every time I see it.

catch em, take em out and hang em.

[HairOfTheDog]

No you don’t, not in this area.

The burn ban would be a yard cleanup pain in the rear, not a forest fire issue.

Apparently the ELF sign said something like “Built green? - no - black”

[Larry Lucido]

Was any carbon released by this fire?

[RDTF]

domestic terrorism that shouldn’t be taken lightly

[GVnana]

As much as I dislike the “McMansion” building trend, this is a terrible anniliation of the hard work of good people.

[MaxMax]

Seattle MSM encourages this behaivor along with their Government.
These terrorists believe they're doing nothing wrong.

Right on both counts ... Beautiful homes.

[BenLurkin]

Correction: Where are the Pinkertons when you really need them (to stop the Molly Maguires)?

(Must get coffee.)

[DBrow]

I think I remember Algor saying he’d get tough on terrorists, and the question that he got in response was, how about domestic terrorists? No doubt thinking of Limbaugh he said yes. Then the clincher, what about ELF and the others? No real answer.

We must do something about these domestic terrorists, or we’re showing a blueprint for other terror groups to follow.

ALL THAT CARBON RELEASED INTO THE ATMOSPHERE!!!!!!!!!!.....................

[bizeemommie]

So sad. Street of Dreams makes a lot of money for children’s charities every year.

[RosieCotton]

Aw, geez...

[thecabal]

Don’t forget that “Tre Arrow” just got extradited back to Portland from Canada. He must have been eating some real fattening veggies up there, cause he got chunky during his stay.

*snort*

Oh, the irony...

[caseinpoint]

Given that so far a lot of these terrorists have argued they avoid human injuries, then it seems the solution might be private security. If there is any reason to believe ELF or its allies might target a site, then put private security people there to watch, stay in, whatever. Make sure it’s clear people are there, staying in the houses, with lights and cameras and guns, and we might just scare some of these chicken terrorists away. We might find out how many of these ELF members or supporters are hard-core moonbats or just kids looking for a kick.

yea talking about another case of cutting your nose off to spite your face. Idiots. This makes me furious.
