Stephen Martin says he was using his jeep to clear trails for him and his wife to run on his 20 acre lot when he first saw the smoke
Stephen Martin says he was using his jeep to clear trails to run on his 20-acre lot when he first saw the smoke on Thursday in Security Widefield.
“I turned around and I saw the smoke and I freaked out knowing it was definitely coming from my property,” Martin explained.
Martin says he was racing back towards his home when he first saw the flaming patrol car.
“So, I came back up here. I raced around the corner and saw a car on fire. It kind of blew my mind. I didn’t understand what was going on,” Martin added.

The plea came as soaring temperatures were reported across the state
The operator of Texas’ power grid asked residents to conserve electricity Friday after six power plants went offline amid soaring temperatures.
Brad Jones, CEO of the Electric Reliability Council of Texas, said in a statement that the company had lost roughly 2,900 megawatts of electricity — or enough to power nearly 600,000 homes, the Texas Tribune reported.
Jones referenced the unseasonably hot weather, saying it was driving the demand for power across the state. Temperatures approaching 100 degrees were forecast from Austin to Dallas over the weekend and into next week.
Jones did not say why the plants went offline, and a spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment Friday evening.
The executive asked customers to set their thermostats to 78 degrees and avoid using large appliances in the afternoon and early evening.
The non-profit energy organization, which manages power for 90 percent of Texas’ electrical grid, faced blistering criticism last year after blackouts left millions without power for days during subfreezing temperatures.
The company blamed frozen equipment in an event that left more than 200 people dead, many from carbon monoxide poisoning as they tried to stay warm. Others froze to death. …
The Real Reason Baby Formula is Out of Stock
Why is baby formula out of stock?
Here’s one big reason flying under the radar: lack of competition.
89 percent of the country’s baby formula market is dominated by just four firms.
