For the second time in just over a year, Bellevue firefighters were called to battle a blaze at the Islamic Center of Eastside in Bellevue. Crews responded to the fire in the 14700 block of Main Street just before 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The cause of the fire is under investigation. The building has been vacant since Jan. 17, 2017, when it was first set on fire. Isaac Wayne Wilson, 37, pled guilty to reckless burning in connection with that fire after being initially charged with second-degree arson. He was sentenced to 14 months in prison, 12 months of which were to be served in community custody. Wilson was also previously convicted of fourth-degree assault and disorderly conduct in 2016 following an altercation with a member of the center.
