PROVO, UTAH – November 18, 2015 (Gephardt Daily, Kurt Hansen) ─ A fire that destroyed a shed and thousands of dollars in property, is being considered suspicious, according to Herald Extra.

Dean York, Provo Fire Department, said crews were called out to a fire located at 1167 South 500 West, just before 4 a.m. Wednesday.

The fire threatened two nearby homes and flames were reported to be so high they were visible to fire crews from the freeway.

York said the fire seems suspicious because there was no electricity or wiring to the shed.

Fire marshals are currently investigating the scene for anything that could have started the fire including any unusual accelerants.

The shed was destroyed along with more than $10,000 in property.

No one was harmed in the blaze.
