Glad they are on it!
This kind of thing could be a distraction to pull off first responders, just like the pipe bombs at the RNC and DNC.
Happy it appears to just be a random fire.

Boba Fett didn’t die then, however.
He shows back up again in The Mandalorian, and plays a pretty significant part.

There is a small homeless encampment under that bridge. I hope no one was hurt.
