CHICO, Calif. – A special part of a memorial for those who died during 9-11 was destroyed by fire, said Chico police officers and firefighters on Sunday morning.
The memorial at Chico’s Fire Station 5 at the entrance to Upper Bidwell Park is “one of the most beautiful ones outside of New York,” said former Chico resident Marie Mitchell. Her brother, Lt. Paul Mitchell with the FDNY, died at the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001.
