I found it interesting on 3 news tonight regarding this fire. A senior cop has stated that the fire is being treated as arson... HOWEVER: there is NO evidence to suggest anything along this line.
WHY are the police taking this line of thought??? "Because it should not have happened".

Very clever logic Mr:Police: ...

:doobey: :doobey: :doobey:

There's nothing like having evidence to support a theory
