Arson is being blamed for a weekend fire that gutted a vacant Mesa home.
The house at 337 E. Ninth Ave., near Mesa Drive and Southern Avenue, suffered $100,000 in damage during Saturday night’s blaze, Deputy Chief Mike Dunn said.
According to investigators, a couch on the back porch was set afire and the flames soon spread to the attic. It took fire crews from Mesa, Gilbert and Apache Junction 15 minutes to extinguish the fire, Dunn said.
There were no injuries and the fire was contained to that property.
