Porta-potty fire spreads, destroys storage shed at Vancouver church
2 min read
A Vancouver pastor is asking for help in finding a man he says caused thousands of dollars in damage at his church.
Surveillance video shows the man entera porta-potty on the campus of Cascade Park Baptist Church early Monday morning. Minutes later, it was on fire.
The flames spread to the church’s nearby trailer and storage shed, causing about $15,000 in damages.
Still, lead pastor Kevin Kruse said he wants to find the man. Not to file charges, but for another reason.
"At the end of the day, it’s just stuff. Stuff can be replaced. But we would love to be able to get this guy the help that he needs. Would love to have him come to church even," said Kruse.
