Seattle officer burned after suspect threw burning wood into police cruiser

A Seattle Police Department officer was burned after a man allegedly threw a burning piece of lumber inside the officer's cruiser while the officer was sitting inside the vehicle, authorities said.

Meanwhile, the number of illegal homeless encampments at Seattle parks has been growing in recent weeks, setting up a conflict between park enthusiasts who are frustrated by the tents and homeless people who say they have few options on where to pitch them.
