Possible Arson at Duluth Storage Unit

Posted at: 09/07/2012 8:08 AM

The Duluth Fire Department is investigating a fire at a storage unit in Morgan Park as an arson.

Authorities responded to a fire at a storage garage near 89th Avenue West and Concord Street. The call came in around 3:50 a.m. Friday morning.

Crews said they saw heavy smoke and fire coming from the last storage unit. But the blaze was knocked down quickly and contained to just one unit.

Damage is estimated at $2,000, including one vehicle. No injuries were reported.

The fire marshal's office is investigating this as an arson. But authorities said it is unrelated to other garage and arson fires from this summer.
