Crews from the Paso Robles Fire Department burned two abandoned cottages

TRIBUNE PHOTOS BY LAURA DICKINSON

Crews from the Paso Robles Fire Department burned two abandoned cottages Friday night in the 700 block of Pine Street as a training exercise. The cottages date to the early 20th century and were removed to make way for a mixed-use development. Before igniting the cottages, fire crews packed them with hay and wooden pallets. A third cottage was set to be burned Saturday night. At right, 8-year-old Jack Ostrander, left, 9-year-old Jarrett Knaver and 11-year-old Bruno Ostrander — all of Paso Robles — check out the flaming cottages.
