Boss,I'm finishing my article about the Vance Memorial Hospital fire. No fatalities, although several people, including firefighter Lucia Vance and visiting wildfire expert Raphael Wright, were treated for smoke inhalation. I'm trying to stay unbiased—Lucia's a friend—but she's under investigation for disobeying orders, and I think Chief O'Brien is casting suspicion on her to cover himself.
