A fire broke out at a fourplex near North Regal Street + North Haven Street on Saturday afternoon, hospitalizing one adult, damaging the building severely, and prompting an investigation while the Red Cross helps displaced residents.

On Saturday night, tens of thousands gathered downtown to watch the 87th Spokane Lilac Festival Armed Forces Torchlight Parade pass by as classic cars, high school bands, queens, princesses + 98-year-old WWII veteran Bill Beckstrom riding in a 1944 Jeep honored local service.

The law, which exempts elected officials’ names and job titles, will take effect July 26.
