Deputies: Fire at historic building in Palmyra suspicious
News10NBC has learned that investigators have a lead on who might have set a massive fire in Palmyra that destroyed six businesses and 15 apartments.
The fire happened two weeks on the third floor of a large building on East Main Street. A fire department captain says it was the worst fire he's seen a decade. The good news is everyone managed to get out safely.
Investigators aren't willing to go into a lot of detail, but they are calling this fire “suspicious”. They say they do have a person of interest and they do believe that person intentionally started the fire. It's something the Palmyra community was not expecting to hear.
The area is still blocked off and businesses are still shut down. For Palmyra residents, it is a tragic daily reminder.
