Detroit After Dark: Did You Light Up the Night (Accidentally)?
Ah, Detroit. A city of rich history, architectural wonders, and... well, a history of fires. Look, we all know about Devil's Night back in the day, but what about now? Those late-night cravings for a flaming hot Cheeto and a Molotov cocktail just don't hit the same these days, right?
So, the burning question (pun intended) is: how many fires blazed across Detroit's landscape last night?
Hold on to your hose because we don't have an exact answer yet. The Detroit Fire Department isn't exactly known for its speedy updates on Twitter (they're probably way too busy putting out actual fires, unlike some social media managers we know).
QuickTip: Revisit this post tomorrow — it’ll feel new.
But fear not, intrepid fire enthusiasts (is that a thing?), because we've got some ace investigative techniques up our sleeve that would make Sherlock Holmes proud (minus the deerstalker hat, it's July).
