Crews arrived at 4:25 p.m. and began extinguishing the playground equipment and recycled tire mulch. The fire was quickly brought under control. A slide, rock climbing wall, large area of mulch, the cover over the slide and top along with the rubberized coating on the walk surface were all damage as a result from the fire. Evidence recovered from the scene indicated a non-accidental source as the cause of the ignition. The City of Plainview Parks Department are working to retrieve estimates for damage costs.

The incident remains under investigation.
