Firefighters suspect arson in house fire

Monday, Sept. 27, 1999 | 12:39 p.m.

Las Vegas Fire Department investigators are looking into a Saturday morning fire that may have been intentionally set.

Firefighters responded to 2009 Hasset Ave., near Oakey Boulevard and Eastern Avenue, just after 7 a.m. to find a vacant two-story house on fire.

The fire was quickly put out, but it appears the fire was intentionally set in several locations inside the house, department spokesman Tim Szymanski said.

The fire caused about $5,000 in damage to the house, which was reportedly vacant for two months. The investigation is still open, Szymanski said.
