SEATTLE - A string of arsons has people in one Seattle neighborhood looking out for the culprit. The Seattle Fire Department said seven intentional fires were set in the Central District beginning December 4th. Fire investigators are working to determine if any of the arsons are connected.
One of the seven fires was at a residential construction site near the 1100 block of 21st Avenue South. Two piles of debris were set on fire at the location, which one of them signed an exterior wall of the structure. After spending two hours patching up the wall, construction crews got back to work building the homes.
