Firefighters responded to a fire late Thursday morning that has since been ruled suspicious. Box 47 was dispatched just after 10:30 and Engine 8, arriving first due, reported smoke showing. Crews stretched a line to the third floor of a vacant in the 500 block of No 11th Street and extinguished several small fires burning in the attic. The Fire Marshal's office was called to investigate.

Apparatus on the Box were Engines 8, 3, 11, 5 safety, Snorkel 1, Tower 1, Rescue 1, Medic 3 and Cars 1, 6 and 22. Car 24 responded later in the incident to investigate.
