Just after 12:30 pm, SMC FIre was dispatched to assist Spring and Ponderosa Fire on a house fire at Border and Booker in Spring. As units responded a black column of smoke was visible in the sky from miles away. Units arrived to a mobile home with heavy fire. At 2 pm crews remain on the scene with multiple hotspots in the 97-degree outside temperature. Border and Booker Roads are both closed.

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.
Scott Engle and Jamie Nash are Montgomery County residents and veteran law enforcement / breaking news reporters, who met covering a law enforcement story and have covered multiple counties, with Scott as a television videographer for multiple local stations and national networks, and Jamie as newspaper / magazine / online reporter.
