Police: Seattle Housing building burned by woman trying to smoke crack

A woman who tried and failed to light her crack pipe last week caused a fire at her Capitol Hill apartment that resulted in roughly $30,000 damage, according to police.

The fire call was dispatched at 4:01 p.m. Jan. 24 at the Olive Ridge Apartments. Firefighters responded to the 1700 block of 17th Avenue with five engines and several other apparatuses.

A fire investigator talked to the woman, 61, who lived in the apartment where the fire started. She admitted "that she had been attempting to light the contents of a 'crack [cocaine]" pipe with a lit chopstick," Detective Kevin Grossman wrote in a court document.

Chinese food is hazardous to your health.

Only when MSG is added to the food.

Thundley, when in an Asian district in the USA and you notice the woman have their hair up held by what looks like chopsticks--be advised those hair ornaments have been sharpened to a very fine point. 

Lady's room at a club in China Town and 2 woman got into an argument, both pulled their hair ornaments out and I fled the room before the blood began to fly.
