While the infamous white van from the D.C.-area sniper saga of 2002 is still in our memories, we have a new van to worry about. The arsonists in the Hunters Brooke fire may have driven a blue van to do their deed. Firefighters noticed that a blue van was driving away from Hunters Brooke (an example home at right) when they were arriving on the scene of the massive subdivision fire, the Post reports. There is no regional all points bulletin on the van or blockades on the Beltway, but investigators are looking for the occupants of the van for questioning. As of now, there are few leads in the case. Since the controversial subdivision sat on the edge of a rare and threatened Magnolia bog, environmental extremism by eco-vigilantes is being looked at carefully.

We’re wondering if Hunters Brooke sits on any significant Masonic lines in region. Since it sort of sits across the Potomac River from George Washington’s Mount Vernon, who knows … conspiracy theorists could probably link them. After all, the sniper shootings were all a Masonic conspiracy, signaling a coming “New World Order,” at least according to this conspiracy site. (Cue, eerie music …) Someone, please call Dan Brown — eco-terrorism could make for a good plot twist in his new book.
