    Yavapai County Sheriff's OfficeCornville AZ (June 30, 2020) – On June 28, 2020, at approximately 3 PM, YCSO Deputies were dispatched to the 11300 block of E Oak Grove Lane in Cornville for a reported wild fire threatening structures in​ the area. The smoke was black and could be seen from approximately 10 miles​ away. Verde Valley Fire and State Wild Land Fire arrived on scene quickly and eventually were able to control the fire. 

    Deputies investigated and determined the fire was started on a property in the 11300 block of E Oak Grove Lane due to a man working with a grinder and metal material on the east side of the property. While using the grinder, he noticed a small spot fire nearby and attempted to extinguish it without success. The fire began burning out of control and moving in a northeast direction in large part due to 20 mph winds. The fire travelled about 800 feet, crossed a road into vacant and improved land, and made to E. Adams Road before it was contained.

The trees on the west side of the residence were destroyed and part of a wood fence was burned. A home in the 15500 block E Adams Lane was the only residence to suffer structural damage which included plastic siding and fire damage to an early 2000’s Ford Mustang.

    The Bloody Machine
    By Tommy Acosta
    What is a life anyway? A single “life?” Is it nothing more than a collection of emotions and thoughts, reverberating pain and pleasure, hopes, dreams and fear? Are we merely meat; flesh and blood creations encapsulating what we believe is a soul? Or is a single life the microcosm and macrocosm of human life on earth, each one of us a unique representation of who we believe we are and the whole of humanity at once? We are born. We grow old. We die. Everything we experience is but a dream between those two points. Or are we manifestations of a Divine Creator, every one of us complete in the image that we were made? So, we are told.
