Just after 2p.m. River Plantation and Caney Creek Fire Departments were dispatched to a grass fire at Exxon Road and FM 3083 near Grangerland. When they arrived on the scene the corner of the gas plant had already burned off and was moving toward the property fence.
The fire was quickly extinguished. The cause has not been determined as witnesses said it had started on the Exxon Road side away from the road.
MCPR was created in 2008 after Jamie left a newspaper that conflicted with her ethics. Initially, it was blog style website where Jamie wrote stories and posted them with photos. Scott provided video, and as the blog grew in popularity, businesses began to inquire about advertising. The blog soon transitioned to a news website, and then to a print newspaper, which was sold in over 100 stores, and through subscription for several years.
