 Psssst!  Hey “Candidate #5,”  you weren’t by chance trying to destroy any evidence linking you to Gov. Blagojevich, now were you?

CBS 2 News Chicago reported that on December 24, 2008 at 12:15 a.m. Chicago Fire Department’s truck 49, Engine 126 and Battalion Chief 17 responded to a fire in the 2500 block of East 72nd Street.   A small fire apparently started in the home of U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson, Jr. 

The origin of the fire was underneath the main fireplace in the residence and the victims were listed in a police report as U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. and his wife, Ald. Sandi Jackson (7th), police said.

No injuries were reported, according to police.  SOURCE

I’m glad no one was hurt.  And yes, ‘big brother’ is still watching you.
